I would like to disconnect the front shock and raise the front wheel to see exactly where the tires rub before/after rolling the fenders.

The problem is, I'm not sure what the limit of upward travel is with the ohlins & 650lb/in front springs. I had very slight rubbing with the front end lowered to something like 25-25.25". I'll have to STFA for my own info

I also need to get a very good idea of how much clearance I have to reduce negative camber using K-mac bushings. The ET=30 BBS wheels stick out pretty far with stock (lowered) camber, so I'm thinking I should verify there's room for less camber before spending $275 on K-macs.

I guess I could roll the fenders as much as possible, use K-mac bushings to set camber to approx -1 deg, and keep raising the ride height from 25 inches until rubbing goes away.

I'm just trying to get a game plan. thanks

if the wheel/tire is right, you should get to about 9.5" hub to fender when the control arm hits...

Hey Ryan, will you email me? I have some more brake questions

thanks for the info

remember, that's at the wheel, so at the damper the travel is at a different ratio...

gotcha. I'm only concerned about the tire/wheel
