As far as your surging idle, check you Idle Air Control Valve.

Thanks, so because of the wheel offset and the ride height after my alignment and everything my rear tires were rubbing on the fender so i decided to raise it up a 1/4in and it was still scraping so today i put my hard race rear camber kits on and hopefully tomorrow itll get aligned right so no more rubbing, reason why i did it after the alignment i thought i would be charged extra for it but they told me i would not and told me to put them on and i would not get charged extra, $115 for a 3 year alignment and store transferable

yeah don't be afraid of running a lil camber, it may wear tires unevenly, but it won't scrub them the way toe does. toe is the real tire killer. some shops like to run a lil toe in to wear the tire more evenly, but for street use i like to have my toe set to 0 no matter the camber setting.
