    Good thread. But it would also be nice if everyone listed their suspension/wheel specs in their post too.

    @Quigs
    Did this setup require your fenders to be rolled?

    In the rear, yes. Rear fenders are rolled flat with a very slight (~1-2mm) pull and the rear bumper tab has been shaved. In the front I just have a small square cut out in each of the fender lines where it would rub in parking lot situations.

    The setup could be achieved without the pull, but my rear camber is at -1.8ish instead of the standard -2.7ish that is seen when lowering on the H&R springs. Before I changed the camber I had no rubbing issues with a very slight roll and trimming of the bumper tab. The adjustment of camber is what required the flat roll, slight pull, and bumper tab needing to be completely shaved. The only time I rub now is when making hard left turns on banked off-camber corners such as what is found at The Dragon. But that problem will soon be solved with a dedicated 17" wheel/tire setup for track days and trips to The Dragon :)
