sorry if this is a dumb question but i couldn't find my answer. do rim sizes affect camber? what i am asking is this. if i have my espelir springs installed with my stock 16" wheels and have my alignment done (uk spec -1 front and -2 rear), when i switch to 17" rims will i have to have my alignment done again? if this is the case then i will just wait to do the springs and wheels all at once but it might be a while since i can't really afford wheels right now but i have the springs sitting in my room. i thought it would be good to put the springs on, let them settle a little and then have my alignment done and then when i get new wheels i can just slap them on and go. thanks for any help.

also, i was thinking of going with the the rpf1s, 17x17.5 et48 with a 215/45 and 17x9 et45 with a 245/40. i have read mixed answers as to fender rolling but i am anticipating that i will have to even with -2 camber in the rear. i know this topic has been beat to death but i am starting to understand offsets but i am still having trouble understanding how tire sizes work.

 

rim size doesnt affect camber. so no alignment necessary if you had it done recently.

 

thanks. i didn't think it would but it is something i have never encountered before.
