Got them installed, there is about 1 finger clearance between the lower spring perch and the wheel/tire. I don't think you will have any clearance issues. Lock to Lock I don't see any problems either. (Uncompressed anyway). I think it may rub the fender liner if compressed at full lock, but I am not sure of too many driving conditions when that would happen.

I may try and compress the front to see if there are any fender clearance issues, but I think it is looking good.

FYI, I am running only -0.7 degrees camber in the front (using crash bolts). Thats all I could get out of one of the sides while the other side would go to a little over a degree.

Here is the best picture I could take of the clearance between the wheel/tire and the springs (Top of tire, looking down)



This is 17x9 +35 with a 245/40 tire (Hankook Evo V12)
