I have -2 camber on the rear...

Don't think I can get away without rolling them?

Its a pain in the ***, and I don't know how to roll it.

Also, do you think I will have a understeering issue?

I tried searching for the new version of CR KAI on the website. (Jap and USA)

Its not there, but the shop even show me a real picture of it sent from Japan + brochure with the new rims from Work.

I guess it is brand new production.

Maybe you won't need them rolled, but my money is on you will require it.

Rolling fenders isn't hard to do yourself (with the right tools) and isn't expensive. There has to be a shop or group of car people close to you.

I've heard from people that they don't feel like their steering went to crap, but obviously you increased the rear contact patch a lot more than the front. It's gonna feel different.

You also think staggered means having the front wheels sunken though. ^
