Default got the Works on with minimal rubbing!

I went over to Riley's side of town on sunday so he could roll my rear fenders. had a good time watching the art of fender rolling. i left feeling confident that the rears wouldnt rub, since he also cut the bumper and "modified" the mounting screw

i got home and was really hungry but decided to put the wheels on before eating. went out for a drive after the wheels got installed and i heard a painful noise... it was the front tires rubbing lol. so i get home and raise the front 5 whole turns on the buddyclub coilovers. set it down, drove it again and now i only hear rubbing on hard corners and i havent heard a peep out of the rears








rear camber




and heres something i noticed when i took the stockers off. apparently ive eaten through the edge of the fenderliner and my tire got caught on the fender a little and it was bent out a tiny bit. so i hammered the lip of it back in (carefully) so it hopefully wont get caught on the tire again. you can kinda see where the fender got a little warped




anyways, i think they look friggin sick! and id like to thank Riley first and foremost for the wheels and the fender work. and thanks to Evasive for the lugs and Dexter at tire rack for the soopa wide tires


edit: ill have more pics when i get home. i need to black out my plates on two of the pics i took
