removing the camber will cause lots more problems , go rent a fender rolling tool. then rool the fenders nice n slow.

i have no idea where i can get one of those.... i think i can fix it without rolling the fenders.... i would have to take off everything, and run no spacer kit, but then the inside of the wheels would be really close to the lower suspension arm in the rear on both sides... but any idea on where to get a tool like that? or rent one for that matter? thx

they sell them at many online retailers but theyre about 300.00


you can rent one at some auto parts places. body shops will do it for you for like 90 a wheel well.

and the camber shims are helping you not hurting you. if you remove those the top of the fender will be your new problem.

maybe if i take off the shim kit as well i will be better off.... my problem with that now, is that it is very close to the lower suspension arm... if i hit a bump will the wheel move closer to that suspension arm?

A 19x9 with a +30mm offset.....Thats the problem. The proper offset for your rig with an 8in. wide wheel is closer to +42 (moves the wheel "under" the car more)
