I guess a simpler way to put it is: would there be less contact with the suspension and/or arms if the upper control arm is pulled in, or if the bottom is pushed out (with adjustable ball joints) I have a hard time picturing this..hopefully someone has tried one of those combinations.

My C3s are +62 and I already rub my liners with 255 RS3s pretty bad under full compression. I have bent up the bumper tabs to try and clear. I assume a roll would be necessary to keep the fronts from hitting the fender.

Yes, Beryllium will be available in the next batch. Keep an eye on Jackson Racing or our website for the inventory update when we have them. We'll start taking pre- orders about 5 weeks before they arrive here.

There is only one sample in existence so only this picture for now. When more pictures surface it will be from customers who have production Wheels. We are only bringing in a limited number of beryllium in the next batch so if you wait to see more pictures you will probably be too late.

I have been running these 949 wheels since March of this year and thought I would share my experience with the fitment. I really like these wheels and hope to get my hands on another set in Beryllium.

17x10 et 52 w/ 255 tires (NT01 and Maxxis VR1 so far)
-3.0 Deg camber Front and Rear
Lower ball joints in the front
Rear Fender roll + tab relocated
Front Roll + pull
Eibach R2 16kg springs w/ eibach front sway bar.

Prior to pulling the front fenders, I tested the fitment on the front and did not rub with street driving. The fitment looked really close and I didn't want to end up damaging my fender or tire at the track, so I ended up just pulling the fenders before I took them to the track and they fit pretty easily.
