Suspension help
 
Hello all,

I am looking to swap my stock K member when I swap my engine (same engine just a built forged engine). I am wondering, if I swap the stock one to a QA1 K member (part# MU1TK) with a full coil-over conversion, new sway bars, and QA1 control arms, will I have fender clearance issues with the car lowered 1.5" and 19x8.5" wheels that have 280-30 tires?



*side note* What does changing the Ackerman angle do?

It may touch in the front. It's about 50/50 with people saying they have rubbing.

This UPR setup will not move the tires forward like the QA1:

those tires spec out at 25.73, factory is 25.6. You will be fine, if not use your coil overs to raise it up.

(assuming the QA1 kit doesn't change the wheelbase, which it does)
