Well, I have to agree that the Camber is more than I wanted run.....but, this set was to see how extreme we can go with these cars. We have an awesome platform to work with and I decided it was time to push the limits even further than before. It was a tough decision when purchasing these knowing that I might have to do some extreme modification to the front suspension. The only way to even fit the front wheels was to go extreme in the camber.....-4.5 currently....the wheels of course did not fit the OEM bremos, so I had to use a 25mm spacer just to give me a little bit over 1mm of clearance. Either way...If i had to do it again, I would probably would not. Next time ill just get a disk that fits the big brakes, but then again.....Im getting the new G.....so Im done for now....next project please!

There's good offset, then offset that's overdone. I mean, big wheels, low offset/clearance looks nice, but save the camber for the rides with airbags. At least do it right with some flared fenders or a widebody.
I personally think the rears on this car look fine, the fronts just ruin it for me. Just my opinion, of course.
