I searched past posts and couldn't find the one im looking for. Who recently added rear flares and cut out the oem metal? I was hoping I might be able to take a look at that car and do a little measuring. I'm thinking it was Hue? As I've been whining the last month or so about my cars lovely rub I want to get it fixed.

How much camber are you running? Have you rolled the fenders at all?

sorry, that wheels are not for your car and a +35 offset is not gonna work....unless you go widebody kit or lots of neg. camber at rear(the inner tire will wear out quicker though). but why go to a lot of hassle? anyway, goodluck.

Yea, I would pop some negative camber on there and see if that helps, if it doesn't then I would do a roll.

You are stock suspension right? So height isn't an issue. I would think even just a fender roll would be fine. You shouldn't need over fenders unless you decide to go really low with the car.

Does the front rub at all?
