Im rocking some stranos out back with qa1 shocks and full qa1s up front. The car sits 3 fingers all the way around the car. I have fikse fm5s with gs-d3 315s.
No rubbs for me.

im going with the exact same setup....315 rear, stranos and konis. havent put them all on yet though, but ive heard they should fit. going to be close though. i have a TA, the rims have the 50mm offset, rather then the ideal 36.

Just to give you an idea of what I had to do to fit my GS-D3s. I am lowered on a Pro-kit so I had to do a bit more work to get them to fit nicely. Get you a nice hammer and start pounding away. After I thought I had enough, I had to pound some more. After applying a new layer of undercoating, I mounted the wheels and took it for a ride around the block and took them off again. You could see where you had to pound more by where it had rubbed off. I also had to roll my fender lips. It was quite a bit of work, but it was definitly worth it!

To L$1W$6, I did not grind my bump stops, but I do have to lift the rear using the axle. I may eventually grind the bump stop so I don't have to, but I always lift it from the axle anyways.
