1. what size tires are you running with your wheels?
currently 225/30/20 (would not recommend this size, I was suppose to get 225/35/20 but I slipped up) and 255/30/20*

2. are you dropped? if so, what drop?
Yes dropped on H&R Race

3. any fender roll/pull with your setup?
rolled and slightly pulled fenders (and -3 degrees camber)

*Iam running 5mm spacers up front and 12mm spacers in the rear. So it brings my rim specs to 9(+30)/10.5(+30). I was not sure if this set up would have worked without any MAJOR fender work, this is why I went with the tire size I did, but I am getting new tires, I will run a 245/30/20 and 275/30/20 in a few weeks. I will get spacers but I won't get those until I get everything mounted so I know what size spacers to purchase.

Here are some pic threads:
(this one even though further away is a good side shot)

I have 20" Vossen CV3 and I run 305 in the back. If you can fit 305 do it.
