Angry problems

Ok, first heres my setup.
Enkei 18inch rims, ground control coil overs, rear ingalls good camber kit.

Ok, now the problem. When i put the 18inch enkeis on i had to raise my coilovers all the way up just to fit them under the car. This gave me bad camber, so I just installed some rear camber kits. I adjusted the camber as close to normal as i could get it, take the car off the jack, start to drive down the driveway and my car wont move. Turns out my fenders are sitting on top of my tires, the bad camber was the only thing that allowed me to use those rims. Right now I have my camber set back to what it was so that my tires can fit inside my fenders. Besides getting smaller rims is there anyway to have 18's and good camber?

Also I bought Skunk2 front camber kits, am i going to have the same problem with them?

You could possibly get a body shop to roll the inner part of the fender up, but it seems like that might not be enough in your case. You might just have to grin and bear it and sell those rims unless you want to get into a lot of money doing custom body work. If your gunna get the fenders rolled up, just make sure you don't take anyone's advice about sticking a baseball bat in there and spin it. That'll crack the paint all over the place.

There's a guy down the street from my girlfriend, he had to roll his fenders to get the 18's to fit, but they fit after he rolled em. If you haven't rolled your fenders, you could try that.

Is it actually safe to surf the net and work anyway? I know where I used to work where they had the net, I'd of been canned for it, regardless of the pic on someones avatar. Not starting anything, I was just curious, since I know most of the time people I know can't surf the net at work anyways.
