Thank you, I had just gotten a much needed car wash.
The shims I bought were from Ingalls, they go behind the backing plate of the rear drum, or so I was told. I had my local allignment shop install them. It gave me -1.9 driver and -2.1 passenger side.

picture a large washer where on one side it is the thickest (.25") from that point going in both directions around to the top of the washer it tapers, becoming thinner. to where exactly opposite the thickest part is the thinnest. So, for each bit of camber you add(adjusting by turning washer, thickest side on bottom) you also add toe.

lol, sorry if that makes no sense... but check out Ingalls Engineering - Premium Chassis, Alignment and Performance Auto Parts

they were $22 shipped

Just picked up a red 08 Sport Fit MT w/ only 17k miles on it. I'm extremely happy with it. Got excited and ordered a few goodies already: k&n air filter, oem rubber floor mats, rear bumper applique, and oem honda access window visors. What I love about this car compared to my previous 2000 Civic SI and 03 Acura RSX, is that I don't have to try to b e fast to be happy. BTW, anyone got any pics of a MR Fit with SSM headlights?

I'm curious of seeing how the GD3 will look like with 18's but I think you forgot to post the pictures.

Your fit looks good even with stock sport wheels. Looking at the picture I think a cop car is following you.
