Got about another 1/2in to go in the rear, and then the FK are maxed out. It was rubbing on the inner fender (not the fender lip, the actual fender material) so I had to go up that 1/2in....if I had a slightly smaller tire (295s) it would fit, or just have to camber it out.

Fronts have plenty of room to work...this is as low as it can go without rubbage in the turns.

Next up are HID Heads/Fogs and a Front Lip.

Thanks for looking

Sorry bro I don't dig, those wheels are just to big in diameter. If you were shooting for dub then you are spot on I say, different? Not really, dub? Damn good looking 7 in that case =)

spacers and camber in rear would solve your problem AND allow you to go lower. Unless you are explaining it wrong or I am reading it wrong.

It rubs on the fender, not the suspension, so spacers would make it worse.

The camber kit would be a solution though
