3. the front you can put a 10 and the rear a 12... that's what has been done so far and i wouldn't recommend more

and with regard to the scraping of the tire, you add in camber and rolled(pulled fenders), if done right at normal driving condition you should not rub but when entering a driveway and the fronts are compressed you might rub
thanks eurodre
1) i didnt know one could put spacers on the inner side of the mounting hub
interesting

2) i guess its best to buy right the first round than fiddle with spacers

3) let say i do not really wish to mess with the stock setup and leave the camber as it, can the car accommodate 8F and up to 10R?

Do the extremes of 10F and 12R require adjusted camber to get those wheels to not scrap? (curious though i wont be doing this)
