yah i'm for reals, I drove my wife home and it was worse! even with -2.1, it will still robbing, unless set it to -3, the passenger side with -1.7 have no issue at all... check out the last picture i post. i circle with red line, that's the line where got robbing issue. so the only right solution should be roll the fender.

There is something wrong here. Your axle is pushed towards the driver side, whic explains why -1.7 camber clears on the passenger side and not the driver.

PM the date and time of your next availability and we'll put it on the rack again.

You'll be fine without the spacer. It looks really good in the pics.

It can still drive straight, but will be more likely to follow road curvature.
