on a side note! my old setup was at +29 on 10.5 wheel wrapped with 285's on -3.2 camber but it was on yoko s drive which has a pretty thick sidewall. now i'm wondering if i try a 275 tire with less sidewall brand tire would that work.

With your amount of camber and less sidewall it should work. But other than that I can't tell you much until I have my bracket shaved a little and put spacers on.

Nice! You're back to OEM rear bumper right? Does that sag at all? Or does 3M tape hold it up just fine?

yeah, i should've done that instead. that time i was afraid the bolt itself would pop a tire so i completely shaved it all off lol. oh well, it can be fixed later on.

This! I shaved away everything and even hammered the steel lip back and then removed the bolt but kept it. So its as clear as it can be and still function.
