they can turn full lock but it rubs a little on the inside towards the back on the wheel wells and where the wire harnesses come through on both sides.
no tubs, just hammered out

Still working on pulling the fenders... I cut the inner layer to get them this far. (Only running -1.7 camber right now)

Yes, you will be more than adequately satisfied with chargespeed overs. Please don't force those wheels on

Only other pics I have at the moment.

Cut that fucking fender out if you need to! lol.

step 1. lower car till it smushes the exhaust.
step 2. remove exhaust and go lower.
step 3. car can't drive forward cause the tire is compressed between the wheel and fender, so you cut that shit out.
step 4. bang the fuck out of fender till it makes room.
step 5. Put wheels back on, drive down to muffler shop with open downpipe looking like a badass!
step 6. GO DRIFTING YAAAAAAAAY

I have not. I am planning on cutting out openings then reinforcing them with a metal "box" if you will. That should add extra clearance. As a temp fix until my buddy and I can work on it I preloaded my front coilovers quite a bit. It doesn't bottom out as much but it still hits on certain bumps. The rears have tons of clearance though. No arms or anything to hit.

Yeah, I've done that for a couple Honda dudes out here - some even opt to just simply cut out material to create clearance, no boxing in. Seems to be working great for them.

And just out of curiosity, why do you want to preload your coilovers more?

It made the front suspension a bit stiffer which helped reduce the chances of it bottoming out. Right now it's pretty stiff but it's nothing unbearable. My only issue with leaving it as an open area is that it could flex a lot more or possibly deform over time. Not to mention it would look weird in my opinion if not done correctly.
