guys, just do yourselves a favor and buy some Max. Motorsports caster/camber plates. i had them on my 97 gt and that was lowered about 1.8 i think. i also had 18s on it too. no uneven tread ware no "tilted in" front wheels. handled like it was on tracks. im sure there are others in this forum that will vouch for me too. good luck guys.
