Butterflied? I'm not sure of that term, do you mean you have a lot of negative camber. If so, raising it up will get rid of some of it.

yea thats actually called negative camber. And yes raising it will eliminate some.

that means you have negative cambers, which means you're eating away on the inside treads of your tires=you spending hundreds on a new set. if you like how your teg is dropped than just get a camber kit: spc, ingalls, or skunk2s. but highering your car will get rid of some of that camber. make sure you get your car alligned after you do anything
