I bought 18" CE28s not too long ago, and noticed that I rub when I drive spiritedly. I never rub on daily driving though. And this is with stock suspension setup.

This weekend, I will be installing Koni with Eibach springs to lower my car 1" all around. I am planning on getting negative camber, but was wondering what I should set the neg degrees at. I wouldn't mind it rubbing on an aggressive turn, but don't want it to rub on daily driving.

Here are the specs for the wheels:

Specs: front 18x7.5 43 offset. 225/40/18. Rear 18x9.5 40 offset 255/35/18

My rears fenders are rolled.

Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks!

Roll your front fenders ASAP. They are in more danger and will rub more on daily driving than in a track situation. But either way once it rubs through the liner it will grab the fender and damage it and likely damage your tire. As for camber -2 front -2.5 to -3 for the rear.

Definitely roll the fronts. 18x9.5+40 with a 255 in the rear is probably going to need a little more than -3 degrees of camber. I also have a 1" drop, and my specs are 17x9+38 with a 245 in the rear and I had to run -3.5 degrees in the back.

Thanks for the advice. I lowered my car today (thanks to spets aka crazy russian), and it rubs on hard turns or very few rough spots on the freeway.

I wish I rolled the fronts when I did rears, but now that I wrapped my car, I won't be able to roll them anymore. It will simply cost too much to rewrap those fenders.

The rubbing isn't as bad as I thought. I am thinking if I do -2.5 for the front and -3.5 for the rear, I should be satisfied.

I will report in when I get alignment.

Have fun flipping your tires every 4k miles.

It is going to cost even more when your wheel damages your fender. If spets helped you it means you are in the Seattle area so I can roll your fronts. Rewrapping the fenders will be much cheaper than fixing damaged fenders and rewrapping.
