Fair enough. I love how those wheels fit. Can you give me the specs? In particular the tire sizes and the offset? Thanks! BTW as much as I like your wheels the new ones are going to be a much better fit with your current color scheme.

I would fix the toe before messing with camber.

Can this be done with a front end alignment or do I need to have additional or replacement parts installed?

It was around $1850 mounted, balanced, shipped, and put on the car.
