Okay, let me get this straight. The car is lowered two inches without camber kit or alignment. The tires are sticking in due to negative camber. So you used spacers to move the wheel back out?

How do you adjust the speedometer to account for the diameter difference. Or is it too small to have any big effect at lower speeds?

235/35/19 has roughly the same O.D. as the stock size.

215/50/17 - 25.46"
235/35/19 - 25.48"

Navi won't be affected unless you are driving through a tunnel.

So Teddy you're saying that Navi doesn't use the GPS system to calculate speed???????

That would have to be the worst navigation package on the planet! I thought it used dead reckoning only when it couldn't get a sat signal like when you're driving through a tunnel. I fully understand how tire size can affect your speedometer and odometer.
