do you really need that much camber and that small of a tire? i thought -2.0 camber and rolled fenders in the rear was enough.

Rolled fenders might not be good enough. After putting the CRkai (17x9 +44) on, I had the rears rolled just a bit, then I also had to cut the tabs out where the bumper bolts to the quarter panel. Moving the bolt back a couple inches.

I'm running 245's with a 1 inch drop.

instead of rolling the fender you can actually trim off the lip with a dremmel.
