It is hard to say exactly because not all cars and tires are the same. I will just say that the fenders will need to be rolled and probably more negative camber.

Have them same set up on my car apart from the buddy clubn+ coilovers ....

Had to roll the rear fenders a bit and shave a bit off the rear bumper(would have worn away anyway)...

Dropped mine on 20mm tein lowering spings....

Just make sure that the person doing the rolling knows what their doing...I got mine done with no paint damage....

With all that said you should be okay as the roads in the States are not a bad as the roads here in Ireland...

Thanks buddy, i only drive my car about 6 miles to work, 6 miles back.

I dont really go anywhere in this car, so i think i should be fine with a minor roll.
Plus, there are new roads on the way to work now
