they were able to align your wheels proper? I'm currently sitting at:

Front Left - 23.50"
Front Right - 23.50"

Rear Left - 22.50"
Rear Right - 22.50"

and originally was:

Front Left - 18.50"
Front Right - 18.50"

Rear Left - 19.00"
Rear Right - 19.25"

I haven't gotten the tires and rims on yet (still waiting for the last 2 tires to come in, I have the rims and everything just screamin to get mounted!!!). But don't want to take the chance of 1. not being able to get close to stock alignment (prob won't get there even with the A-Arms but closer maybe) and 2. want to be able to replace the ball joint when the stock ones to go out, they're sitting at a pretty extreme angle at the moment and I'm curious to how long they will actually hold... Thoughts?

cohippy, your alignment will be fine. Camber doesn't wear tires, just so long as they can get the split proper and you rotate regularly :D

can you explain. As I understand it, if the Camber is off, the tire will be leaning in or leaning out at the top, \[]---[]/, which will wear down one side of the tires tread much faster than the other....am I incorrect or is every alignment shop I use incorrect.

Yes, it will, but it won't be as drastic as long as you rotate your tires regularly.

Toe is what really kills tires.

Your up 5" in the front? :eek:
Is that center of front hub to bottom of flare?
What kind of lift is it?
Sounds like some CV related grinding may be in order...

If you're sitting that high I would invest in the UCA's for sure.
