Default 18x10.5+20 help?

I have a set of wheels 18x9+20 front and 18x10.5 +20rear, i installed coilovers all around got the fronts to fit but the rears are sitting on the tires.
Seems to me like i maxed the camber out, but then again ive been doing it by eye at home in the garage. Fenders are rolled on all four corners and car is slammed to the max.
i know i have to relocate the bumper tabs, but i haven"t got that far yet.






Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks

Sweet! That’s hella somethin. How’s it run?

But I think you need some more cow bell… err I mean 20mm wheel spacers! Would definitely be icing on the cake

But seriously what the hell made you think these would fit? You need fender flares or even skinnier tires and like 8 degrees of camber. Your fenders are rolled but you need to pull them as well and by the look of things you need to pull them to the point that your quarter panels buckle. These wheel specs work for a wide body S but not for a stock body one.

Well i am happy to live up to your expectations. I am not sure what you were expecting or if you were expecting that you had the one s2000 that could somehow fit wheels like this. You got an answer to your question. The fact you dislike that answer is your own doing becuase you bought the wheels. Have fun ruining your car.
