weird question but it will fit, only if you have something like +45 or more+ os with that size of wheels you will run into coilovers clearance probs.

how the hell do I adjust the camber at the front? I un-tighten all 4 screws and that thing wont move. Do i have to jack up the car or something to ease the pressure?
