Re: Backspacing

I'm running 3" DJM lower control arms, stock spindles which would explain why I don't have any issues. It's been so long since I lowered it and put those wheels on...clearance might have been the reason I went with the LCA's instead of spindles.

If I remember correctly, there is some light trimming to do on the drop spindles with 15x8 on 4.5" backspacing. I wouldn't want to start grinding on brand new spindles. But my setup works fine, Hawker I sent you a PM with the wheel pics.
