In that order.

what are the specs? diameter, width, offset for front and rear and tire size? i have 17x10+ 12 w/ 30mm overs slammed and i still have space enough to 0 out the camber. with 255/40 and 10mm spacer i still have a few degrees of camber to go for decent fitment

Overfenders/Widebody with 195 tires is retarded. As said before: slam, roll, pull, camber and done.

Thanks for all the help guys but I think I've decided to put these up for sale. I'm gonna save up and buy some coils because this 4x4 status is not cutting it. I will post up in the classifieds tomorrow.
