^ And you haven't munched the fenders yet?

I went x9 with 255's all around, these are fronts. So far I'm at -1.2 or -1.5 (can't remember exactly what I set it to) from my old setup, and the there's a lot of meat hanging out, LOL. Fenders are rolled and slightly pulled but I'm getting mixed replies on this, some are saying I'll be fine with more camber but others think I'll have to seriously flare my fenders.

They look great man! Looks like you only installed the fronts? Hit up Steve if you haven't already. He's run that on pretty much all his s2k's, I would take his word on fitment over anyone else.

Yessir! I'm still waiting on my rear tires to come in, but I was impatient so I had to toss these on, haha.

Here's another 17x9 +45 all around with 255/40 rears and 245/40 front.
looks great!

What are your alignment specs?
Sorry for the late reply. Front is at -2.25 camber and rear is at -2.5.

Front oem fenders have been flared approximately 30mm retaining stock lines - rears are cut (not rolled) and tab relocated. No rub even under hard driving.

Before I hacked her up to fit bigger wheels. I kinda miss this setup.

2.5 camber with SPC style camber adjusters in the upper arms is going to put the top of the tire closer in to the center line of the car than 2.5 camber achieved with the J's Racing style offset lower ball joint.
Just saying that how camber is achieved is something to keep in mind when looking at other peoples fitment.
