My rear arms are solid and I can't adjust them. I have too much negative camber. Camber bolts gives too little effect as I need to loose about 2 degs. Any thoughts on how to correct this?

yeah shorter swingarms.


So you do have the camber tophats in the rear and it didn't help?

with shorter swingarms that will narrow the track so you'll need to run spacers.


the reason your 225's dont scrub and mine do is because i have factory wheels with ET45 offset. you probably have ET40 or less on those 18's which is enough to clear it.

I only needed 5mm slipon spacers to do the job, but those are illegal in my country so i got bolt on hub centric 15mm spacers effectively giving me factory 16x7.5 ET30
