Default Rear Wheel Rubs

Hello All,

I have a set of CE28's Front: 18x7.5 +50 and Rear: 18x8.5 +47. What is the recommended camber adjustment that needs to be done to make the rear not rub? I am also rolling the fenders, but I know that it might rub the rear still without camber. The goal is to get the right camber without doing to much.

Any help will be great! Thanks

what size tire do you have and how low is your drop? I run about 2 degress in the rear to make that work

Well right now I am not running suspension. I plan on learning the car first before doing that. Right now it only rubs when driven aggressively. I am running CE28's Front: 18x7.5 +50 and Rear: 18x8.5 +47. Tires are Front: 225 40 18 and the Rears: 255 35 18. So what do you think.

255s in the rear are gonna be just a little wide with that offset. You can probably roll the fenders and/or add a little camber and it will be fine.

Id probably do a combination that way you dont have to get too extreme with either the camber or the bodywork

Another option would be putting a 245 on the rear.
