With 245/35/20 and 275/30/20 and around -2.6 camber all around, I almost managed to damage my front fenders (tires rubbed off some paint on the fenders) and I still rubbed in the back even with trimmed bracket and relocated bolt. And I'm also pretty sure you're tad bit lower than I am.

I'm also pretty sure you won't have a problem cause you got your sh** figured out anyway lol!
yeah, I assume it probably wouldn't work right without rubbing excessively. I didn't take the chance and bought 255-35 and 225-35

Just got a txt from Wei, here's the picture he sent me. His car is finished. Notice the JP frot lip, Advan wheels, Interfooler and Fast & Furious vinyls... He said he wanted his car to be ready for the Fast 5 movie premier.

Nice!!

Now im curious.. Did they take off the OEM splash guards and paint them also? or did they just leave them as is and spray them along with the rear bumper of the car?

car isn't ready yet. don't have any new pic's since it's very dirty and waiting to get a full detail.

every part was taken apart when painting including the splash guards if they didn't you'll see the line have paint drips

also, i'm not expecting everybody to like it and i don't really care lol

I don't know why the forum automatically edits capitalization (especially on their own icons! )...

Anyway, looking good, man! Are you happy with the wheels?

Nice my man! Is that the Lexus white pearl or did shop custom make it? If it's a custom color, looks like the shop added blue or violet pearl to the midcoat. Great job on doing a color swap on your car, yet made it a subtle change in order to keep the factory color on all under/insides of panels. Saves a ton of dough doing it this way.
