Hopefully I'll be done by the end of the summer, then PE exam, and then I'll be done!

Are you at stock height? Not sure how you did not rub with a 45 offset? You roll the heck out of your fenders?
Pre-roll:



After the roll, running -2.9 camber:

Yea, I am lightly rolled, running KW CS with less -camber and 60 offset wheels but I still rub on some corners. Rub less with street tires since I stopped using r-comps.

Oh, you are on CSs? For some reason I thought you had V3. What's your plan for next year? Still just doing HPDEs with the S2000?

Thanks Jason! I was tempted to get the 17x9.5 +32 concave ones and widebody, but decided to hold off on that for now haha. Instead, I am going turbo lol.

I noticed your project wasn't being updated but I figured it was because of the newborn. Congrats again!
