![]() hello zilvia. i recently bought wheels 18x10.5 +7 and installed batlle version rucas. back end was all over the place, went and got alignment right after. i asked if toe would be in spec since i didnt have toe rods on and he said it wouldnt be a problem. well its all under the table so i didnt get a sheet or anything but the back end is still kind of squirrely.... and it rained today so it was a death trap drove real slow home from work. rucas are maxed out btw. im just wondering if anyone else had the same problem but i kinda feel like once i get these toe rods on with the alignment i should be good right???? guess i need some reassureance. btw its my first time running stretched tires and big wheels. i just dont feel like it should be squirrely in the rear... especially since i didnt have any problems before hand. i pic so yall can see. any info would be greatly appreciated.

Since you don't have aftermarket toe rods and it seems like you have camber which is out of spec, it's most likely that your toe could not be adjusted to within spec or evven matched on both side. Get those aftermarket toe rods on and make sure they make toe within spec and the squirrelyness will go away. Promise. haha.

don't get battle version rear toe rods, they aren't bent and hit the subframe when low enough. mine do this and i need to replace them with kinked ones, such as pbm or spl

even if you arent low, i would keep it in mind. i love my b/v ones but shieeeet theyre so outdated. hardly anyone makes straight arms anymore, simply cause they suck
s14 suspension geometry is better but still, its much safer to have more clearance than less, and the price differences aren't THAT much

Toe out can be one terrifying ride. Definitely your problem.

Lowering the car will increase your toe out and make it feel really loose in the rear end.
Going to bigger tires increases the effects of any toe in or out. I'd get some toe rods asap.
