I did not rub, just felt like I could get away with more clearance on a taller, softer sidewall on the drag radials.

This setup is purely custom and designed to run at or below 1 degree at this height, without any lip work, in theory. We thought long and hard about 345, but i wanted to go for 325 first and go from there. But Rusty has made me regret that, haha! I bet if I let some air out, I can bring that outside edge down some!
yea im not gonna lie i havent had my alignment checked since i bought the car lol it drives so smooth and never had an issue with wear/ride so why wast the money.

i def want to get a rear set-up up wide sticky DRs soon though. i was looking into like a 18x12 wheel and run 325 or so mickey thompson DRs or maybe R888s. but the issue is there arent many 18's that will clear the rear sport brakes ive found without shavign the rear calipers. not doing that lol
