Maybe people should put what they had to do with there car to get them to fit as well 
If you need to cut/paint the fenders after you cut them out ...does that really qualify as a wheel that will "FIT"
Hate for someone to get advice without knowing what they are getting in to

It would stick out from the fender A LOT more... but I rolled and pulled the hell out of them, which is why the left front fender is a little fucked up.
The fender roller wouldnt get in there well enough.Soon though... FENDER FLARES (same flares but not molded to body, just painted)

17X10 +25 all around 2-3" drop (can't go any lower) Its been at varying degrees of being dropped depending on how far I have to travel, if I'm racing or the area/lot.

Owner's cars posted asside form my own, nice!
t-rex - Do you get an alignment every time you adjust height? From reading that I get the impression you're changing height often, you have a friend thats aligning it for you?

I change the ride height more than most, but not like a terrible amount. I also record the degrees and pitches the cars placed at for each height adjustment I run, that way I can actually put it back to where they had it on my own. When I get ready for a mountain run or an autox or a track run I just take it in and have them go through the whole car balancing the wheels again, full rotation (benefit of running same size all around) and dialing it all in.

Oh Team, you silly auto crossing goose!
When they start to bracket and podium weekend cruises and grocery runs I'll throw on a 275/35 setup (again).
T-Rex - Oh, I was just curious. Just seemed that adjusting height, aligning, and corner balancing so often would be pricey!
Nice pics let's keep em comin! Where's Carson's car?
