i have a 94 chevy ecsb its bagged i just z'ed the frame 4" and trimmed the bottom of frame off and boxed it in using 2x4 tubing trying to lay it out on 24's i am done with the frame part i am running 20's with 205 45 R20 with stock arms and the tire rubs the fender when i lay it out i am thinking of cutting the upper mount and moving it in 1" so it will camber in faster i would like to see what other people thought before i did it thanks

an inch seems like a looong way. maybe shorten lower arm also a lil bit(same as upper)

im kind of puzzled by the fact that your tires are hitting at all.have you considered the back spacing of that wheel?my 91 is BD on 22s with stock arms (uppers, my lowers are stock tubulars off a 3500 dually but still same specs) and my tires up front are 245/35/22you may be able to have the hub machined on the back of that wheel to suck it in a little bit b/c if you start narrowing cntl arms when you go to put another wheel youre going to have to make sure the back spacing is the same or youre going to run into some bigger problems esp. if the wheels are lager in diameter
