Can you post up the distance from the ground to the top of the wheel well opening of both the front and rear wheel wells for all four corners.

Please take the measurements on the most level piece of ground you can find.

I was wondering why it looked like it had a TON of rake. When I set up an F-body I usually shoot for 1/4 to 1/2 rake.

Could it be because of the staggered wheels combo?

Looking the pics the rear wheels look bigger than the front.

It's almost impossible to tell the height of the original pictures...the after stance looks good though. Not too low, but definitely better than stock.
