Good post... Can a moderator go back and delete the random posts though? Let's keep ONLY the facts to keep this a clean thread (and potentially a sticky).

i just thought too it'd also be nice for people with Air to show Drive Height and Aired Out height. Because you can get some pretty agro offsets on with air because of how the wheels tuck when you lay it out, but then at ride height the wheels jut back out and become a bit mexican sometimes. So it would be good for people to see how it looks day to day as well as in 'show mode' !

Guys if you have questions about the setup, PM the person! This thread isn't going to get sticky'd if we keep mucking it up with questions and comments ( I know I'm not following my own guidance here....) .

Leave it to posting your just your setup so we don't have to wade through all the crap.

Seems like a good idea if we could keep it less cluttered and just facts/pics

hey insomniac, cuz i was curious, i tried running the +15mm spacers up front, they work, rubb like crazy (on fender liner) but they work.

talked to jun, he said i could always just cut away at the fender liner, and cut the fender a bit (i rolled mine but the fronts aren't exactly flat)

so i think max for 8.5's are about +20 for the fronts with under -2 degree camber.
