Thanks Rick +0 ftw..but +12?

MUST · 04-03-2011, 05:29 AM

ya it rubbed when i was running +2 with a 285 tire, which was why i eventually switched them out for a 275 tire...but before those tires came in, i sold my 10mm spacer to buy the 5mm.

my shop friends spec'd my setup to run +2 in the rear with a 275 tire with my camber (which is -2.something, and not running a camber kit) and that it wouldn't rub, but i don't have physical proof of it.

Did you have to do anything like roll the fenders on the front to fit +12?

Really? I feel better now lol I'll need to raise my car though I'm sure because i'm tucking the fronts a lot right now. What's the gap between your tire and fender? any close up pics looking directly at the wheel and fender?
Thanks

i had a 275/30 on an 11.5 +0 with a 5mm spacer and no camber kit and still had plenty room.
