I dunno, I have the Peak Performance arms, and I'm able to pretty much tuck quite a bit of rim and still not hit anything.

Then again, I don't have the subframe risers.


Here's something interesting I found last night while tightening everything down on the passenger side rear.

I noticed that after putting the GS arm on, and setting the adjustment pieces to the shortest as possible (everything stacked against each other, cannot be adjusted any further), that it made my wheel fitment go to crap.

It seemed like with it at the completely shortest adjustment, that the arm itself is shorter than stock.

I ended up lengthening it a bit, and eventually got the wheel fitment the way I wanted, but the camber gain wasn't the same; there were less camber gain as the wheel went up from full droop to where I wanted the ride height to be.

Toe out as the wheel went out was also not as pronounced.

I also noticed that, I lost a bunch of droop travel on my coilover, despite not even touching it for ride height or anything.

I wonder if the inch or so of roll center correction on these GS arms actually took some of the droop travel out of my coilover?

In any case, I have to take the wheel off again tonight to make some more adjustments before I'm 100% happy with this side. I had to quit for the night because my arms got too tired to lift my wheel up to the car/take it back off the car.
