All depends on how low you are, if you want to pull or leave it rolled. Have a pic of the car and how it sits now?

Man I tell everyone this: You can ask all the questions you want but fitment is all trial and error. There is no right way to do it, it's just about making it work. Roll, pull, and adjust until the wheels work and the car looks the way you want it.

Nitto is a HORRIBLE brand to buy for stretching. They have very stiff sidewalls and are a relatively stiff tire in general and that's part of the reason their grip is so phenomenal.

There's over 1000 pages in this thread ALONE (not to mention the 1000's of pages in hundreds of different car makes and forums across the web), 17 dedicated "stance sites", more than a handful of tire stretch websites, and probably close to a million facebook groups about this style that we've all partaken in. With that said, how do people still have remedial questions about it? There might be more "how do I stance right for scene points" questions than there are actual pics of cars that have done it. lol

Potential noob question:

My car is at the shop getting a clutch replacement. I just got a call from the guy working on it saying that my passenger side axle is coming out (of the diff) on it's own due to the camber (around -8°) but the drivers side is staying in fine.

The car has never been aligned so its possible it has a tad more camber than the drivers side but I don't know if (aligning) that will solve the problem.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks guys.
