i am looking to do this same set up. did you have to roll your rear fenders? if so, was it mild and did you have to do the heat gun mod to the front?

Its a great setup so you will like it

Yes the rear fenders are a mild roll. You do want to use a heat guy when doing it to help soften the paint and this will help to prevent it from cracking.

I would say with even some 9.5" wide wheels running a low offset, a wider tire and stock alignment you would want to consider rolling the rear fenders even. I test fitted another set of wheel that were 18x9.5 +22 offset and with the factory alignment specs if there was a 265 or larger tire it probably would have rubbed.

eSco tomE he'd def had to roll AND use a heat gun, i've actually never heard of anyone rolling fenders without one good luck
The setup on this car is 18x10.5 +22 offset on a 275/35 tire. Alignment is only slightly more aggressive than stock with -1.8 F and -1.0 R.

If the car was lower a bit more aggressive alignment may be needed to not rub.

There will be a lot of different variables though so do some research on what you are wanting to achieve. Wheel size, offset, brake clearance, tires size, ride height and alignment.

I am personally not a big fan of having my cars slammed with a lot of camber. I like to be able to drive my car into most placed, parking lots, driveways and not go through expensive tires every year

I like the functionality of this car as this car is daily driven.

When it comes down to it, it's your car so do what you want
