    I recently installed the 96+ arms and definitely improved the castor over stock. Now I just need to get 17x8.5 wheels.
    Several E30 M3's.

    More than I need but not as many as I want....

    This is pretty impressive! I've been trying to fit some 255/35-17 Hoosiers (these are actually more like 275mm tread width). One of my major hold ups is the height adjustment collar hitting the tire so as such I'm trying to mount the camber plate/strut higher up, probably on top of the strut tower to give myself more travel and room so I don't have to space the wheel out as much. I did have to raise my front fender arch though as I was getting rubbing up there with just 245/40-17's.

    It's great to know that I can run that wide of a tire on a stock fender on our other car and make it work! Thanks for the information!

    OP, what suspension are you running? What are your spring rates? Thanks.
