[QUOTE=JSR_AP2,Dec 2 2007, 10:16 PM] tp-ap1,

In this pic, it looks like you have stock, unrolled front fenders.

Right now, I can easily run 245s up front and possibly 255. I have a spare pair of 245s and may end up swapping those tires back.

As for camber, I forgot what it's set at. I requested them to be maxed out front and back. I don't drive the car daily, so I really don't mind about tire wear at all.

I have a new set of rims in mind. I plan to go cut my current offset in half, +22 all around. We'll see how things go though...

silentdancer - mucho THANKS for all the explaining and info!!! So I had the wrong understanding of "rolling" a fender. I still don't quite see how the camber and even narrower tires allows it to not rub since in my example, the wheels would still stick out 10mm past the fender, but it seems to work so I can't argue that.

Do you think I could run an 18x8.5 wheel in the front with stock unrolled and unpulled fenders? What tire would fit w/o rubbing (225?, 235?)? What camber would I need? I don't want to run >-2.5* front camber.
Sorry if the questions are too exact. An educated guesstimate on your part would be great.

Escalvante - Your 17x9 +45 RPF1s look SWEEEEET!

tp-ap1 - thanks for the info! What fenders are those you're running now? How much did they cost?

Thanks!
