what the heck camber and size tire where you running? And what drop? I'm running 245/35 in the front with -2 camber both sides and eibach drop and if I hit a bump, there will be some outer fender rub. My tires is pretty flush to the fender. Looks mean though. Thinking about tanabe fronts to ease it a bit, but I like the lower look.

you'll rub at some point but it won't be something you have to worry about too often.

get coilovers and your issues will get better. i'm assuming you're on stock shocks?

yeah big deal, the diff between 225/35 and 245/35 is 7mm of sidewall. Thats about 1/4"

Im in Staten Island, and drive in EVERY borough all the time.

What brand of tire are you running? Different brands run either true/small/large to their actual size.

Running Falken 452's. Probably should've went with 225/35's then. 7mm off of the sidewall may give me some room to prevent fender rub. I went from +32 offsets to +20 offsets on the CV-1's, so I added 12mm's.

Wish I lived in Miami so I could run those stretched tires. I would also be more slammed than my current Eibach's too.
