but my steering pulls to the right even after allignment... like bit more torque steer to fight with. do you have like any aftermarket parts installed for your front like control arms or anything? i was told my wheels too thick width and height so lowering it will scrub but will fix the problem 50/50

Maybe ask them to re-align it if you're not happy with it??? I'm running AKOM inverted rod ends, Todd's tie rods and Whiteline camber bolts, along with the BC BR coilovers. Go a 225/45 or a 215/45 that should help. As previously mentioned, more negative camber won't hurt, you'll most likely need it to tuck the tyre under the guard if you go lower. Trim your splash guard and roll your guards?

What width and offset are you running?

Haha, nothing really to update Tim!!! I'm still looking for a new low profile jack, it's either $160-190 for a cheap costco 'Arcan' one. Or a mate of mine can get a steel one at trade price for $280, not sure what brand though.

i might try the 225/45 and lower it and get abit more negative if i can at the front, i've got bc br coils too and would i need the inverted rod ends or should be fine putting on 225? im only running 17x8+35 or 38. it was fine on stock suspension but after coils got installed problems started occuring and that front had issues.

Depending on how low you go, you don't really need them. They'll help correct the angle of your tie rods, in turn help prolong the life of the rack. I found them to help a lot with the bump steer, I no longer have to fight the steering. I'd buy them solely for that reason.

I was able to successfully fit 17x8 +38, with 245/40/17's on the front. But then again, I'm running -2.4ish front camber, rolled guards and removed the splash guards to make it fit.

I'd try lower it and adjust the negative camber first, see if that helps. Before forking out $$$ for the 225's.

Anyone know of anybody selling the kiddracing headers anymore? I can't seem to find them, and the kiddracing website doesn't seem to exist anymore.
