If your on oem specs, you probably need to add a little camber and or combine with a fender roll.

If it helps Phong, I got mine done at the goodyear place by forged. They did mine to the UK spec, which if i remember right is :

front caster: 6.75'
front toe: 0
rear toe: 3mm per side or 6mm total or 1/4" total
front camber: -1
rear camber: -2

Im not sure how that would work for an ap2, but with that camber/toe in the front on 17x7.5 +48 with 225 sumitomo HTR ZIII's and an approx 1.5" drop i have no rubbing.

Thanks Chris...I'll definitely get another alignment soon. I don't want to mod the fenders at this time. I tried to get everything done by Friday but it didn't happened. I remounted the stock wheels for the drive today.

Anthony, I picked up some used, but in great condition, flat black CE28n in s2000 specs when I was down in Orange County. I was between the RE30 and this and decided to get the CE28n's.

What tires do you have on your car. I doubt itll matter much, but my sumitomos are 9" wide on the front (section width). You should be able to get rid on any rub by changing your camber. My set up sticks out .5" more than stock yours is probably closer to .4" out depending on tire width.
