no.. roll, small flare, relocate the rear tabs and possibly trimming the bumper a little.. also depends on the tires sizes you are going to run

+42 is a little to agressive for stock fenders.

You will have to roll your fender, relocate your rear bumper tab, and cut the rear bumper. Of course this is dependent on how low you plan on going

I have 8.5" with et42 and I needed a roll, bumper tab relocation and bumper cut. No flare needed. I'm running 245 rear tyres.

the half inch of wider wheel will not make enough of a difference to rub with -2 degrees camber (UK alignment specs).

At 1/1.5 inch drop, there should be no problem, I think I'm at 2/2.5" somewhere.

no decent ones... need to do a decent photoshoot without oversaturating the pics




This one before camber was dialed in, I just turned the rods to max negative camber in the rear (the toe links, so massive toe-out as well)
