Looking SICK Adam! What size is the rear tire? Do you have camber arms? What's the wheel width in the rear?

Looks sick adam... I like the color combo, nice choice

I just don't know about the amount of camber you'll need to be running in order to tuck the rear

Thanks guys!

Mariano, I'm using a bigger than recommended rear tire (255/35) on the 11" rear. Wasnt ready to go smaller until i stop using the car as my daily. I have the Megan camber and toe arms, camber arms are maxed out negative but it's no big deal, i will be adding more camber this weekend one way or another to get them to tuck. The megan front upper control arms are awesome by the way, good amount of camber to tuck a wheel that is 33mm more aggressive than my old setup haha

Hot Import Nights is end of the month so the car will be getting little things done pretty much every day until then...

No doubt - was going to tell him to take that back to the body shop and demand they redo it. Looks awful.
