shoot I did too, but I did it on purpose by taking 10-12 hours of classes every semester.
I had fun building engines and working on my 240 and driving around when I should've been in class. I'd do it again too lol best years of my life. Being an adult sucks!

and I'm not old!

I plan on getting Ciro caster plates to try and get it more centered in the wheel well. The whiteline doesn't move the tire as much, so you should be fine.


I didn't have time to get over to the shop and take pics of my tires last night.
Have you looked at these?
http://www.ground-control-store.com/...ion.php/II=732

I would like to keep the camber control at the top of the strut and Zero out the plates and set the eccentric bolts to -1 or whatever, -2 I think if you flip the bolt, and adjust the plate to get more/less camber, and be able to adjust caster as needed to get the wheel centered up too.

I think I'm in the same spot you are. My stock wheels/tires are juuuuust eating into the fender liner and I want to put some aluminum flashing in there to make my own liners or something and I don't want the tire eating into it cause it'll be much more detrimental to things if they're metal I assume.

At the very least if I do replace those liners with factory pieces I don't want to have to replace them ever again cause new they're like $60

Our PSRS move things quite a bit forward at the bottom.. but i have to think that adding more at the top won't really bring the wheel back much seeing where the hub pivots from. If we're talking a couple degrees up top, would we even notice any movement on the wheel?
I have to admit I'm wondering if the caster gain is worth the fitment problems. I just can't keep my fender liner away from my tires. the passenger side is pretty much gone, behind the oil cooler, with only the metal bracing left. It's ridiculous.
Maybe i need a different wheel so i could get rid of my 20mm spacer.

I found an old thread, Ciro said maxing out the caster adjustment (which adds ~2* caster), moves the wheel back about .165".


The big spacer and resulting low offset could be hurting you. I just took the fasteners out of the front of the liners and ziptied them out of the way for now.

It would have to I think. because on a mac strut youre moving that whole assembly back a bit, obviously less at the bottom as thats the pivot point but still:
A. any extra caster is good for the Evo
2. even a couple mm difference would help with that eating the liners I think.

my passengers side is like yours the tire likes to reach out and touch that metal brace... grates on my nerves.
