I think as long as you torque them right from the get go you should not have to continually re torque them. It's still a good idea to check up on them just in case though. I've heard many people with the DRM's and everytime they rechecked them after months of install they were still at the correct torque.

Sick! I'll have that exact same setup, except 285/265 RE-11's.

THIS, I like! Looking forward to pics.

oh, by the way, you may want to order the SPC or SPL rear camber arms and toe bolts to get the rear camber and toe back in line....
You don't want premature wear on those meaty tires.....

Nah, he should be close enough with such a minor drop the swifts give.

EXCEPT, the larger the tire, the more pronounced the camber. The insides of his 305's are going to see a lot of wear compared to the outsides. See my pic below

I added camber arms to correct the -2.8 back to a more reasonable -1.2
