Paul, thanks for the link. I even have the same SIR hub/bearing tool as used in that thread and was a little confused about how to use it, so 2 birds with 1 stone.

Yes, I put on 18x9 Fikses. They have 3mm less offset (44mm) than oe twists w/5mm spacers. Previous owner put on eibach lowering springs. I have -2.5 camber in rear. Maybe cantilevering the bearing with negative camber is hard on it.
