Yes!

Full cambered, 245/40's all around, rolled/pulled fenders, shaved inside of rear bumper, remove/shave amber/clear corners, yank liners, good to go. No one has really done anything aggressive like this so if you've got the guts, go for it. Better be dropped to the ground or it will look goofy though, you also won't achieve as much negative camber without an extreme drop...

Why not spacers with studs as a part of them?

That FD looks horrible. Sadly that is the better angle from the other pics I've seen.

That is what I do, kill threads. But I have a feeling this one will not die because of me posting in it.
