If I could some how fit a 9.5 +22 I think I could make it work.

It hits the strut housing, there isnt anything I can do to move it more. Its already slotted on the lower mount and maxed out on the top plate. I'm also not going to run more than -2* of camber and its getting a 235-40-17" tire.

I'm just going to switch to a 17x9 +22 instead and a 18x9+22 out back.

Dan, if you modify your coilovers like I did. You should be able to pull it off.

different idea than what you are thinking, slotting won't accomplish the same...

I dont see what that is going to chage though, since that already sits lower than the wheel, I'm having issues with the wheel hitting the strut body itself not the lower bracket or locking collar.

Its causes the strut to sit | like that. Instead of like / that, causing it to push it out a little bit.

But if you have the camber plates re-drilled/tapped and widen the lower hole out more, you should be able to get a good amount of clearance. I did.

that doesn't just lean the strut housing away from the wheel, it moves the whole strut house away from the wheel and doesn't fuck up your camber range while doing so

edit: too slow

Ah, I see it offsets it further inward. I'll look into that then, thanks dude.

Probably just modify mine. Should be pretty easy.
