Really? I find my wheels too far back with the WL PSRS thingy and SSB caster tophats. Rubbing at the back of the wheel well.
yeah. The PSRS pushes everything forward to increase caster. From what I can tell, the camber plates hardly made a difference.
If I'm choosing between additional caster and wider tires, I may pull the PSRS.

I'm down to the metal braces that run horizontal on the front of the liners. I have no plastic left to secure ,so they probably are blown back by the wind.
Im finding I really need to put some sore of blocker to prevent rocks from falling behind fender and coming out between door and side skirt. But for the front area of the side skirt, I cut that up to just over the metal support bar a long time ago. Thats been fine.

I bought some relatively firm, stainless, screen/mesh that I plan to try. I'm hoping to keep rocks out of the oil cooler and ACD pump. The rear and top of my liners are still good, at least.

Was going to do plastic, like 1/8" abs, to block water, dirt, and rocks all from that area. But I have a few projects i need to use that same stuff for. A little bit of heat should make it pliable to reshape and fit some of the curved areas I need too.
Haven't tried it, yet. Was going to rivet it into place, replacing the original plastic.
Mostly, I'm not sure it's okay to have air coming from the front of the car and into the wells. Plastic sounds like a better solution.
I've been using mesh for years, works great. I had a hoosier full slick fail going sideways onto curbing and had to drive back to the pits with the tire going bang bang bang in the wheel well, this stuff saved everything.
It's the mesh from Pegasus. A pair of side cuts works fine, the wire isn't uber thick so it's semi-light. You measure aprox how wide/tall you want it, but you will be molding and trimming it to fit ON the car. No way to guess/measure all the adjustments I've made until I started putting it up there. And then a bunch of fine tunes for rubbing or sharp areas. Takes a couple of hours. Wear gloves lol.
The screws are those short self tappers you find in the sheet metal stuff, the rest is zip ties to pull the mesh inward and away from the tire.
i just use the same mesh u find in the bumper. I have the varis side skirts which have the duct from the wheel well down along the side skirt and before i meshed it off i used to have to constantly repaint my side skirts from rocks and rubber etc getting launched down the duct and damaging the skirt.
I dont have any pics of it but it looks similar to balrok's but more like a picket fence vs that supermax prison fencing effort balrok has haha
on a side note wheres a good cheap place to locate a pair of rear axles? u.s spec evos came factory with mech. rear diff where as ours are all JDM spec with AYC. ive got a mechanical rear diff to go in but finding axles is almost impossible. i dont want to buy some flash aftermarket 1000hp ones cause ive never had issues with axles. just want some stock ones.
