Pulling Rear Fenders

ClemsonWill · 02-07-2011, 11:27 AM

I'm with Bullit. I want to see pictures of the -6.7. That's some serious negative camber.

i would definitely NOT drive like that cause you can end up blowing your tire from too much weight on that inner shoulder.

lol i already know the risks and tire wear i'll be getting. I've been doing aggressive fitments for a while and knew what I was getting myself into.

I don't know if that's even possible.

Nothing is too aggressive if you can make it fit with camber and fender pulling. I understand a lot of ppl aren't into the look and what not but it's what I like, and pushing the limit has always been something that I like to do. Going widebody is out of the question lol, I'll just go more aggressive if I went that route. I wanted this fitment and all I need is 2-3mm more of clearance and I'm set. Not everybody likes HellaFlush or respects what it's about and call it dumb and what not, but with any car modification you're taking risks. And this is something that I like. I'm in the final stages of getting the rears to fit and I'll be good to go. And yes I daily drive the car

Also I forgot to mention that when I ordered the wheels I didn't want anything less than a 6.5" lip in the rear, and I got it. Eventually I'll get the fronts out to a 4" or 4.5" bc I still have some room. The front is running -3.5 camber.

LOL I feel ya!!!

I am at the same drop point as you and my exhaust is 1/4" off the ground hehehe. The only alignment racks I can get onto are in ground applications. That is some serious camber and I think you should be fine with a slight pull. Congrats on the 6.5" lip in the rear!!!

Haha it's part of the game man and thanks. I had two fat guys sit in my trunk and i literally need very little bit to completely tuck on dips. So a slight pull will definitely solve the problem.

That video was just stupid! Talk about totally non functional/not to mention looks horrible. Nice Sti in the vid though.

W.O.W. 370Z · 02-07-2011, 01:06 PM

Your offsets are all wrong...

kenchan · 02-07-2011, 01:15 PM

i suppose for a VIP look that's pretty normal-ish....

.... (?) but man that looks terrible for a performance oriented car guy.

Stanced370Z · 02-07-2011, 01:24 PM
