You can go in the teens in a 10.5 with a fender roll and pull. And the front's I say 9.5 in the low 20s is good enough, definite rub though.

yeah..it is possible...as a matter of fact,,anything can be possible right?
I just wanted to point out that that setting won't give you the FLUSH look..it will definitely stick out a little bit,,right??

Yes, you are correct, out of the box it will not fit. You will have to stretch, pull, and modify, but eventually it will fit.

everyone has their own opinion of flush...this is mine:





some guidelines:

1) you cant be flush at stock ride height
2) you cant be flush with beefy tires
3) you cant be flush without negative camber
4) you cant be flush without poke
5) you cant be flush without rubbing

I totally agree...people have their own opinion on FLUSH look

here is mine..I could had gone more aggressive but I wanted to slam and tuck at the end of the day....

Calvin,,just to give you an idea,,that's how flush it looks at my normal driving height..and of course I can tuck/slam all the way down
you can still go little more aggressive and still be able to tuck..
that's something that I'll get in the future
