The more I look the more I like, the good thing is when you get the alignment and what not, not only will it look more aggressive, youll get more life out of the tires.

i agree though, with the camber kit and alignment (again) it will look better and more aggressive

I finally replaced my shocks last weekend, so I can finally install my camber arms and get it aligned. I like the camber look if it's flush...but mine's not flush with camber

ok ok ok this is finally getting to me... I have -2.7 camber and it is sooooo much more aggressive than this setup...

This is my old setup at -2.3:

This looks much more likely what he is running...

-3 looks like:

ilive2win is not running -3 camber...

srry its just been bugging me for days now... The setup looks great BTW! Just run your camber out to -1.8 in the rear and maybe add a spacer if you want...

Chris_1 · 12-09-2010, 01:11 PM

Please dont run a spacer on such nice wheels, Just fix your camber and you are solid.

I'm def not running -3 camber haha but it is still a lot of camber that needs to get fixed. I'm not going to run a spacer. I'm just getting a camber kit for the rear.

I know it's horrible I don't know my camber settings lol. I just forgot to ask them cuz I was in a rush to get out of there, but when I go back I'll make sure to find out

Good advice. Get corner balancing and alignment, and you are set.

haha i wont be running any spacers, im just going to get the alignment first with the camber kit and go from there

got any closeups, around the hub area?

my fronts are shipping to me from cali on monday. still waiting for the 11" rears to show up in the states tho.

i want to get a good look at the hub area. i want to use our CNCs to machine myself a set of 1-piece centercap, hub centric ring, and 5-10mm wheel spacer... all in one. since ill need all those items anyway, it would be quite simple to integrate them all as one lightweight aluminum piece.
