I think it's funny how so many guys want to slam their SUV without addressing alignment issues [camber].
I played with lowering and 15mm spacers on the rear and the tires clearly rub the inner fender edge to the point of melting the plastic flare..
But ya gotta drive to see it's a bad idea..
But continue..

No rubbing issues at all on my 43 with 15mm fr and rear and 21's with the Amazon module in low pre-set settings (also far from slammed). You got a body back there ? LOL I think the 63 stock has more poke than the 43 so that might be the reason.

Better safe than sorry and the car does not need that much negative cambering the rear.

What settings are you lowered on for your lowering module? Did you get an alignment done?

Dude of course I got my alignment done before and after lowering my car, I even added camber adjustable upper control arm up front.
If you are not rubbing on the rear with 20mm spacers you are running far too much negative camber and for your fronts expect 3-4,000 mi. from your tires.
But I'll watch how all you guys with lowered cars and zero camber adjustment talk about your tires wearing unevenly...
There is only one way to do things right.

I have both links and module and have reset the height back to stock. I run -1.6 camber on the fronts and -2.1 on the rears.
Lowering the SUV is not the way to turn it into a "car".
Watch this video and ask yourself do ya wanna really mess up a good thing ?

Looks wise the 20mm/25mm set up seems spot on but I can't help but think over time your rockers are going to be roached from the front wheels throwing haymakers. Keep us posted. I would not want to be driving behind you - LOL.

Only time will tell (assuming you have some sort of PPF ?) . If I had that type of poke living here in the northeast forget about it, Toast City !
