Good point, I should have clarified. Fender measurements were all taken with the OEM wheels and 245/45-18 Toyo Observe Garit winter tires on them. For the last week and a half or so I've been driving around with my summer 'shoes' on the front, and my winter (oem) 'shoes' on the back because of the fitment issues with the LC's (Linea Corse's). As much as I hated to do it, I didn't want to wear down the winter tires any more than I had to. This 80+ degree weather is far from ideal for a winter tire in terms of longevity. lol
So, I didn't take the pics til after I put the LC's back on the back, so I could compare pictures from when I had the H&R's on with them to now.

Camminv6 - or just cut your stockers like I did and don't bother wasting your time changing out perfectly good spacers.

I have never liked the ride with cut springs on past cars, plus why pay $300 for H&R's to use only half a set. I feel like I should be paying $150 for just front springs in that case. I will call H&R as well just see if the response I get.
