Could be an optical illusion, but that looks like a lot of negative camber - is that for fitment to avoid rubbing? What camber are you running?

lot of it probably is optical, since it's so wide in the back. it's lowered on h&r's, not sure what the exact specs are as i didn't do it myself. i will probably get an alignment in the not so distant future so will report back.

That's not enough rubber on these wheels, you should have run

255/35s and 305/30s to be closer to specs...

You wheels look very nice but need either black satin or glossy for my car

standard v12 vantage is 255/35/19. Shouldn't upsize to 20" call for 255/30/20? No issues with 35 profile in the front for 20"?
