Gram Lights 57DR help
Nothing done to alignment yet.
Funny you say that.
Minutes after getting everything situated, getting ride height set. Took it out for the first test drive. Went to make a U turn into a steep parking lot(stupid to begin with) and was going just a bit too fast and WAM! ...the right front tire grabbed one of the fender liner holes of the fender(which was 100% bent up against the fender). It tore the outside edge of about 10" of tread clean off with a slit around the whole tire. First time for everything but I was pissed. Extra pissed because it was my wife's idea to make the U turn because she forgot something at home, I blame her haha.
Needless to say the tire isn't unsafe(no cords showing) but I ordered a new one . I set the ride height about 1/4 of an inch higher and set the damper 4 more clicks stiff. I'm gonna wait to get the new tire and get the alignment at the same time. Hopefully a little more camber in the front will add a bit more control/confidence to the steering as well. I'm not quite sure I like how it feels as it stands now.
Btw don't make fun of me. I feel like an idiot

Find someone that rolls fenders. If it isn't to terrible they should be able to make it much less noticeable.
