Yeah especially with the 30mm spacers. I've got the adjustable toe & camber arms. I think there'll be some fender cutting

You're using the spacers too? Holy f**k. :lol:

Here's a comparison with my set up (which gets tyre just under guards with a few degrees of camber) from my favourite website.

This is true, one bush cost me $100 when I had to replace it.
Still, from what I can see, it's around $300-$400 for them.
