What camber are you running if you didn't roll your fenders? I thought with 17x9 +44 you needed to roll the fenders?

When I was tracking, I was at -3 so I should be pretty close to -3. If you want to run less camber or a wider tire (Wider than 245), you would need to roll the fenders.

I also just flared my front fenders and had them repainted last week (Not sure if you can tell from the photos). I should now be able to run up to a 235 tire without worry..

Just curious as to how your tire wear is? I'm planning on getting 17x9 +44's soon and I want to make the tires last a decent amount.

Don't run too much toe in if you want to maximize the life of your tire. You may also want to purchase a tire with a higher tread wear rating than mine. Toe in helps reduce the potential to oversteer.
