In other words, what should I tell the Nissan tech when they are doing 4-wheel alignment with aftermarket springs, wheels, and tires?
You might want to have them dial in a bit more negative camber than the stock settings not only to increase your clearance to prevent rubbing, but also to help the car turn in more sharply. Do you have camber arms front and rear?
