Question about tucking.

I am certain all I need is to roll my fenders to fit the rear wheels "tucked" - But what I have no idea about is the front... Will I need to run camber to tuck the fronts? - I mean, I have had some low cars, but never tucked on any of them - so I don't know if I will tear up my tires by just slamming my coils, or if I will need to run camber too.

Anyone?

What? Tucked or flush? Tucked just get weaker offsets and enjoy without having to roll fenders. Flush, it depends on how flush/aggressive, how low/camber, and what size tires.

My wheels are proper fitment regarding offset. I am on 20x10R and 20x8.5 or 9 up front. I don't want the whole aggressive flush look - My wheels fit nicely, but what I am wondering is with 235/45 up front, if I lower it more, will I have an issue when I turn the wheel?

There are differing opinions on what are "proper" offsets. Not feeling the tucked look at all.

How low are you planning to go? Pics of your car as it sits now? If your wheels aren't low offset and wide then you shouldn't have issues with rubbing up front.

+1 on this.
A 19x8 + 40 will have a ton more room than a 19x9 +20. Wheel width and offsets (other than "proper") will help in determining what you need to do in order to tuck and how much room you will have.
