Default Installed RCA's with Tein CS all the way down *PICS*

I installed the Exact lowering blocks today. I'm gonna raise it up in the morning because I can't even turn my wheels without hitting the fenders. I'll have to pull them but I'm not sure how yet. Any advice? This is the stance I was looking for.








For some reason, it looks like I gained more camber. There's much more camber in the front than the back. From my understanding, the lowering blocks shouldn't have changed my camber.

The RCA's lower your ride about an inch if I remember correctly, so it will change your camber. Stance is looking pretty sweet though

it depends on the RCA how much it lowers. and it should help camber and gain back suspension travel... how's your front upper arm?

I tried to look after I lowered the jack but I can't see it. I haven't driven it like this yet because I can't turn. I'm going to raise up the coilovers a few threads to see if I can drive it and still be pretty low.

I wish it were possible. The tires are actually touching the fenders.
