Shouldn't be tearing up rubber like he is. I've got 315 on stock alignment specs. No rubbing or issues at all.

yea but you probably are running proper offsets, his aren't but still shouldn't be tearing up tires that fast even at -4.5 his toe is probably off.

As far as toe, I'll have to check but I doubt it. It's mainly my aggressive driving. And the tire wear is even on all sides. I jacked up the car last night, and studied the quarter panel construction, I may be able to crush some of the metal to make a huge flare, and reinforce it with a titanium plate that I can get made. I'll have to take it to a dealer or body shop to see if that can be done though.

I have been working with DJ on his tire issue. Part of it is driving habit lol he even admits he thrashes his car on the daily. I have sent him over pictures of some behind the scenes shots of the process and discussed in length the process to widening the fenders and keeping the oem look.

Right now he is going to try to flare the rear fenders and reduce the camber. He will definitely need to look at his toe settings... I bet that is one of the main reasons he is running through tires. Raising the car a half inch will also help in more ways than one.

He is in good hands boys :tup:

Honestly man, if it wasn't for all your help I would probably consider selling the car. You're the best!!!
