Just a follow-up to my post from a few days ago, I tested fitted my wheels again this time on both front and rear. (18x9 +35)

To give you a visual of how much camber you gain with crash bolts on the front suspension, here are some before/after shots. I didn't actually use crash bolts, I just pulled the OEM upper bolt out enough that the larger shank was out.

First 2 pics are before, next 2 are after the camber bolt adjustment. Spring is compressed to stock height both times for proper reference.

End result is that it will fit with the crash bolt installed.
Lowering springs should add a bit more camber that will also help for clearance. (ProKit on the way)
