It's -2.5 front at ride height, so I'm assuming a degree or so more on "L" mode.

*EDIT* but yeah factory camber maxxed out. I haven't installed my Nagisa arms yet in the front.

It might be a while b/c I'm going to have a shop fab up some new ones and improve the design. Waiting on a front knuckle I ordered before sending to the shop.

Yeah, that's my ride height, static. Daily drivennn! No issues in the rear, just a little rub in the front now because fenders but that was because of poor fender rolling by a business I don't wanna put on blast. It used to be horrible when I first had the wheels on it, but after time the wheels basically rolled the fender for me! Haha

Wheels might be up for sale soon though!!!
