Going aggressive with front offsets

XLR8SN · 08-19-2010, 01:46 PM

With a 9.5 rim and a 245/35 tire...with +15 offsets...you will rub. Maybe not too bad..but on turns and sudden hard dips...you will rub if you don't adjust anything. There are no front camber adjustments stock and I am not too sure about the current front camber adjustment a-arm offerings.

I have 245/35 tires with a +17 offset (+22 with +5mm spacer) and I do rub at times.

The +15 will probably rub a little more at times...but might be passable. 2mm can be a lot in regards to clearance distances. I am dropped on Tanabe GF210 springs...but unless you use coilovers and drop it lower to create the negative camber...its going to be a little rough at times....in my opinion.

Not saying that it cant be done...just that if you use only drop springs and those offsets...then that is the results that I am getting. Still waiting on better options for the front camber adjustable arms.
