Default HELP!!!!!!!! Suspension Questions!!

I just got my Enkei RP0M's (18") 215-35-18. I've heard MANY people say that they will fit with no problem. (Please don't ask me to get smaller wheels, everyone says that, I don't want smaller wheels) So I have those with Neuspeed Race springs. I just bought a Camber kit off of Groupbuycenter that goes up to +3.25. Well since I can't put the car in the shop til next week to have the wheels and camber kit put on, me and my friend put the wheels on so I could see what it will look like and the wheels sit WAY up in the fender. I already have my springs on so will the camber kit fix it a lil bit. In the back, it's fine. The front however is REAL low. The wheels sit crooked since the camber is off so bad and it being 18"s but will the camber kit fix it or will I need to buy coilovers or other springs? Also, how much should a shop charge to put my camber kit on? Thanks.

It should fix your camber problem. I'm just wondering if you're rubbing against the fenders. If you are...you'll probably have to "roll your fenders" to make room for your wheels. It's pretty cheap and most shops can do it. Usually it's about 80 to 100 to install a camber kit.

BTW any pictures? Cause I wanted to do the same but I wanted to know how it looked first.

If you go with ground control coilovers you can adjust the height so they wont tuck so far in.

But as long as you arent rubbing on every corner, then all is well.
I used to rub a tiny bit when my wheels were tucked (i have 17's) and i turned like a HUGE uturn at a good speed...

But now i dont rub at all
Anyway, you should be fine
If you rub, roll the fenders and ur done.

they just take the inside fenders and roll them up....you can't notice at all. It's kinda hard to explain without showing you, but most people have to roll their fenders to fit large wheels on their cars.
