How much camber do you have in the front? I'm running 18x10 +15 255/40/18 in the front with -2.5 degrees and it doesn't rub.

Your inner tire wear must be significant, though a bit of toe in can help with scrubbing the outside.

Kingbaby come on man, it seems to me like you're intentionally inciting people. You have good intentions with this thread but I would recommend you don't take things so seriously.

Sick setup!

I'm sure that front rubbed like a mofo before the camber.

Like the stance, but the blue wheels...meh. Not for me. Looks good otherwise.

Fine...

Just a couple of quickies as I only had a crappy camera with me. This extreme sized setup is auto-x only, I don't drive on the track or the street with tires this big as it would track like a SOB. The car is slightly lowered, I would prefer to drop it a little more but the roads around here are pretty horrible and there is already a couple of places that I can scrape.

I challenge anyone to fit more tire under the car than that!

Poor guy was getting thrown around like a rag doll, still has the awful stock Corvette seats. He said at the end of a run his forearms were on fire from hanging on for dear life. He had the new race seat with him in the trailer and was going to swap it over at lunch but he never got a chance.

heres my contribution...

Forged Specialties SC 5S
20x10 + 27 w/ 275/30/20
20x12 + 20 w/ 325/25/20
Gloss black with a pearl white engraved pin stripe.

My front got raised a bit by putting these on. Will have lower it about an inch to even things up. Also the camber is sitting at an estimated -.5 front and -.9 rear. So have to adjust those.

But even still, so far zero rubbing and if it was gonna rub it would have when i go in/out of my driveway.

With the slight lowering and camber adjustments, im thinking I may go to a 285/335 next if i feel like spending the extra money on michelins.

With the wide tires in the rear you have to watch out for toe link bolt rubbing against the edge of the tread under high lateral load. Your wheel offset is slightly further out than mine so you should be good.

Wow, very nice, congrats on a setup that is very different. At least from what I have seen in the past although I am semi new to the Nissan dark side.
