thats cool, i never really knew that thanks for the info!
no, thats not what he meant. drop will tuck your wheels more. hes saying you can run spacers to get them to sit flush at your current height

Yea what I meant is the opposite, the lower you go the more your camber is going to pull the wheel towards the center of the car, meaning you will need lower offsets/bigger spacers to sit flush.

I recently put 18 x 9.5 +20 Nismo LMGT4 wheels on my V35 and thought they would sit too wide .... from the pics you can see quite the contrary. With the V lowered around 1.5 inches all round the fronts could do with 5-10mm more and the rears could do with 10-20mm more until I install the rear camber arms.

I haven't heard of anything over 25mm won't be safe do you have proof?

can you justify how anything more than 25 is not safe?

cause I've been rockin 30mm for quite some time and have had no problems with track days, canyon runs, daily driving.

+1 i would like to know as well. in theory, its really no different than running a wheel with lower offsets.
