Actually doesn't look to bad from the rear, but that could just be from the angle of the shots. The last pic is exactly what I was hoping to see. It looks like it sticks out a lot from the front. hmmm...Maybe aftermarket skirts or oem side strakes might help cover some of that up.

Thanks for the response by the way. I'm looking to do a similar set up as far as the offset with over fender. However I may go with the ap1 rear(even though i love the ap2) because there is a company getting ready to release an add on that will flow and finish off the over fender to the rear bumper. Actually I think they may also be making something for the ap2 rear so I may not have to switch

looking to run either:
Enkei RPF1 17x10.0 +18 for the rear with 17x9.0 +45 in the front
or
WedsSport TC105N - 17X9.0 +25 in the rear with 17x9.0 +49 in the front

leaning towards the weds right now cause I'm not sure if the enkai's will work in the rear even with the over fender yet. Plus the weds are a bit more sexier and not as common.

Anyone know the lowest offset possible to run with the over fenders without having to worry about rubbing or loads of negative camber?

Depends on what tire you pick, and what size.

looks like fingerprints to me....

So anything between 40 and 45 on a 7.5 or 8 is too much to handle without rolling or -camber nichigo?

Depends on the size of the rim aswell.

I had 19x8 +40 no problems, no rolling, no pulling, no adjusting camber.. Occasional scrub upfront if you hit a large ditch in the road, but never did any damage, just wore down the splashguard buttons.
