I am just going to tell you honestly, it looks pretty weird.

it's the boxy wheel+ boxy car itself that doesn't match properly

just does't look right but that's just me.

well when i bought the car they didnt rub, then i dropped the front some and they rubbed because of the tire size if you have the right size tires then you wont have any trouble

In the rear, lowering adds negative camber. You could have lowered it without rolling.

The fronts might have needed a roll.

Lower

Unnecessary rolling

^ most likely he did with a fender roller. And it looks like a decent job from the pictures.

I just can't understand why he did it. If he only did it cuz he liked the look then that's fine. But IMO it would have been ALOT cleaner with just a roll in front and NO pull for your wheel set-up.

I said pull as in the flare on the fender, not roll. Now if you can go through that right there ^ and find the word pull then your post was useful...
