relocate the rear bumper tabs. the fender liner tabs for the front should be pushed/bent upwards if you're going to keep the liners in. run at least european alignment. also the brand tire is going to matter because some tires are made with wider shoulders or wheel protectors...

Ive installed this same setup on other cars, and have this on my rears currently.
have to roll rear fenders, relocate the fender screw back some, trim the lip of the plastic bumper possibly, and add -1.5 or-2 deg minimum camber in back
fronts, youll have to add some camber, and also push up the tabs on the fender that hold the liners on.

J's, think I could get away with a similar setup, without adding camber?.. considering I just spent $170 for a custom alignment 17x8.5 +48 in the rear, lowered on espelir springs. I want to run 255 in the rear, but I'm sticking with 215 up front.

$170 for a "custom" alignment? What is that? The local shop I use is very good and he charges about $60 for a four wheel alignment. I told him where I wanted my specs to be after reading up on this forum, he compared to stock specs in his machine and did it. Took about 45 minutes and that was adjusting it too, since it had recently been lowered.
