I need more info on alignment settings...
My plans are to lower the car to about 1/2 - 1 finger gap, get the fenders rolled, pulled, and tabs relocated, run 225/255 tires, with 20mm front and 25mm rear spacers.
as far as camber goes, after looking through this thread im thinking -2.9 to -3.1 rear (is that too much?) and -2.6 front.
what do you guys think? what about toe settings?

Since AP2 wheels + 25mm spacer would be about:
Front:
17" x 7.0", +30 offset
Rear:
17" x 8.5", +40 offset
Front
28mm Less Inner Clearance, Retracts 2mm outer Clearance
Rears
18mm Less Inner Clearance, Extends 8mm Outer Clearance
Front:
17" x 7.0", +30 offset
Rear:
17" x 8.5", +40 offset
Front
28mm Less Inner Clearance, Retracts 2mm outer Clearance
Rears
18mm Less Inner Clearance, Extends 8mm Outer Clearance

That's on a 7.0" and 8.5" wheel, right?
wouldn't a 8/9" wheel change ur calculations?

235 and 215?? Still the same answer i previously posted..You'll be fine..just fender damage is possible
i was running 245R and 215F..stock camber...25mm spacers ALL around with Neuspeed springs (about 2 inch drop..if not MORE) and i DID not rub at all..NO FENDER DAMAGE..even in the canyons...
it wasnt until i switched to coilovers and went lower..then i ended up with fender damage
what are you lowered on??

Do Espelir springs drop lower than Neuspeed? I'm on Espelir springs with 20mm spacers and the rear rubs.
