Or pull the the fender so it doesn't hit at full lock. You will not have credit card fitment up front, but you will not have to spend money on tires or raise it up.

^^I've debated that...my front fenders are already wavy from a bad rolling job, so maybe another 5mm pull won't be too bad. and it's not the tires I'm worried about its creasing of the fenders/scraping off of the paint

all cars do its caster.

it doesent make the gap between the tires and fender larger.... it just lifts the whole front end as one.

I didn't say it makes the gap between the tire and fender larger. I said it lifts the whole front end up, like you did.

And I don't think that effect is affected by caster as much as the king pin inclination... then again, I'm probably wrong on this.

Caster and steering axis inclination (kingpin) both affect the "jacking effect" of the front wheels under lock.

Sad that when I did look for it on RIMTUCK, that setup wasn't there in the Acura TSX section.

I don't know how to explain it, but you can see it lift when you turn your wheel. its like putting the rim on a tilt.

^^^ Ya a 215/40 is not that extreme on a 9.5j

True story: Im on my way the other day from work and a guy in his 18 wheeler calls my attention and in spaish says my rear tires are flat.( FYI Those are my wheels a couple post up thats quoted). So i pull over and there fine! I guess when he saw that the lip of the wheel sticking out he thought i had a flat. lol

haha the driver side has stupid amounts of camber (-8) then the passenger side. Found out i had some cheap ass camber bolt that wasnt set right, so i messed with it and pushed it all the way in for some more camber, and that was the outcome. didnt know if anyone would catch that lol.. im looking for stock bolts so that i can fix it again..passenger side needs more, and driver side needs less.

^That car's specs have been posted at least twice that I can remember.

Look a few pages back.

And if you think those huge rears would fit behind some 30mm fenders then you're on crack.
