Yeah it does look that way, but it doesn't. The tire tucks underneath the fender perfectly when the suspension compresses. Since I am already max camber in the front I'll need a camber kit to tuck the tire in more. I'm also considering widening the fenders even more.

Did you adjust the alignment yourself? I've got no clue regarding your experience so forgive me if I mention things you already know, but adjusting camber in this car affects toe. Have you had your toe settings checked? The car would definitely be all over the place if your toe was off. I do know for a fact that alot of race alignments run -3 camber up front, so that's the least of your worries. As far as the rear, all I can really say is that I've run as much as -4 in the rear, and it seems to be just fine. I'd really get the toe settings checked. Not just total toe, but how it is relative to the car too. Your total toe could be 0, and the rears are still both pointing say, left.

As far as the front, if you don't pull some, you're going to get some poke. The s2k has alot of camber gain, so it should tuck as suspension compresses, but just sitting there, if the fronts aren't flared or pulled, that's just what it is.

The term "fender pull" is a little misleading. If you're using a fender rolling tool, really what you're doing is making the tool push the angle of the fender out some. For the rears with the wheel size you have, the biggest area of concern is actually not even the top of the fender radius, but actually where the fender meets the rear bumper, along with the leading edge of the bumper and where the bumper bolt attaches to the fender (the upper one, underneath) The sheet metal in the rear is pretty stiff, but it's very do-able to make it work. The front fenders are another story, they're very thin and easy to make very wavy if you're not careful.

I really want to get some decent shots of my car, and I'm working on it soon, once I do I'll get some shots up. I've got 17x9.5 +38 all around now, with 245 fronts and 255 rears.

I've said it numerous times and people don't seem to believe it but the 9.5 +38s are significantly more work to fit than the 9 +45s.

Dreaming_s2k said it too. The part that you need the most clearance on is where the quarter panel and rear bumper come together. When I put the 9.5 +38s on my car I kept going back and shaving more bumper down and and trying to pull the quarters more and it just kept rubbing. Only then did I realize that it's that joint that was causing all the rubbing.

If/when I get another s2k I won't be getting another set of 9.5 +38s.
