Geeze. But does he drive it much, or is it just something to have? I've always been curious about a lot of this. I want to go lower, but I daily drive the snot out of my car.
I just don't see having something like that to really be worth it. I think max I'd run as far as camber would be -3front and -5ish in the rear.

i do not know how this guy drives it but apparently he drives it alot. he claims it scrapes on flat ground but i believe it.

with that much camber it cant even be fun to drive, camber has diminishing returns. as you increase to a point it looks cool, but drivability goes way down it gets so twitchy on the highway the car just goes wherever it wants when you hit a bump and especially in a front wheel drive application traction is down,

yet again when i set my camber to -2 on all 4 corners, it felt alot more planted in a corner

MB Battles in the same specs as the title of the thread. 225/40R18's all around. He was on the D2BD ScionPro coils. Good friend of mine has the coils now. Good product, but I still personally prefer my KSports.

Glad to see more people stepping up fitment. I need spacers.

I'm looking into spacers as well... I've heard bad things about bearing wear, anyone care to disprove this so I can go on my merry way and buy some?
