We was asked to install a coilover kit on a Focas ST and slam it to the ground.... I warned the owner that with his new wider wheels and "low rider" that the rear camber will migrate and since it's not adjustable there will be problems.

Undeterred he said "slam it" and with the wider rims it will be perfect.....

Methinks not!!
