    Unless Airtekk is made in China, they are not the same.

    Not the same.

    I'm running 275/35/19 on 9.5" +35 wheels up front, but they stick out a bit. They are pretty close to my megan coilovers though. I can fix that no problem if I want to run wider tires. All you need to do is to put the camber plate on top to max and use factory bolts to adjust camber.

    Did you set the camber to its most positive position on the knuckle (or spindle) and then offset it with the camber plate?

    No I put it to the most negative position at the knuckle and made actual camber adjustments using the top plates. If I would have gone most positive at the knuckle it would give me more clearance but I was worried I may hit a bump and it get knocked more negative. I also wouldn't be able to get enough negative camber if I did that.

    My rear kit came in! It looks really nice and was packaged nicely just like the front. Poor UPS guy was nice enough to walk through about 10 inches of snow to bring it to my door. My car is already on the lift in preperation of doing my front subframe bushings, so with any luck I'll get these installed this weekend too.

    I test fit the rear brakes tonight and they fit well. My rims clear them. I had to modify my dust shields though since the rotors are bigger. I basically cut the ring off the outside.






    I actually have the caliper adapter backwards here. It flips 180 degrees and bolts on the other side of the ears.














    I still need to install them fully and bleed the brakes. I have everything off still because I painted the dust shields so the cut edge wouldn't rust. After that I have some more stuff to get done before spring to try them out.
