...thought I'd share. Calipers might not be everyone's cup of tea but I'm really happy with how they turned out.

Beautiful setup! What are the specs on the wheels/tires? Any rubbing on the super downs?

Wheels are 20x9 +35 and 20x10.5 +45. Tires 245/35 and 275/30.

Fenders were rolled in the back and no rubbing. The front do hit the liner every now and then but only on major bumps and when I back up while turning. No biggie, I could probably bend the tabs but it rarely happens so doesn't bother me.
