Toe is usually what makes the camber wear the most in a sense. I suggest Sticking to a 0 toe all around, how ever, it feels a tad bit numb for my driving, but perfectly fine for the majority
I'll try it out! always ran .10 on each side in the rear.

^I run even a little bit of toe in out back and it honestly doesn't look like it's been enough to drastically affect tire wear.

Best of all worlds! Flush, Width, & Meat (at least on the rear...lol)! Have more photos tomarrow.

18x10 with 245/35/18 (2.5" lip)
18x11.5 with 285/30/18 (3.5" lip)





On a side note; why are the guidelines to post on this thread +45 offsets and below? Offsets are calculated off of backspacing and rim width. A 18x8 +30 is ok to post however a 18x11 +56 is a lot more aggressive to the fender but has a higher offset. It should read aggressive frontspacing 3.75" and higher as that's really what this thread is about.

I think it was because most people were sticking with either and 8.5 or 9 inch rim in the rear when this thread was started. +45 used to be considered aggressive on a 9" rim since stock is like +63 or whatever right? I think that's why. Time and style changes so just take it for what it's worth. If you need a roll and a flare I think thats aggressive enough.

U will still get even wear at -3.5
I'm not worried about tire wear. I've been running -3.5 slammed for a while and not noticed adverse tire wear. I am just thinking about my car on a track since that's the setup I'm going for. I might even try and run 255's all around if I can.
