Yea I was thinking about doing 1.5 to 2 degrees of camber for the rear with the ichiba rear camber arms and also rolling them flat. I'm not sure if that will even cut it though.

You should be good with about 2 degrees of camber. I am running 20x10 +25 with 255/35, 2.1 degrees of camber, rolled flat with just over 1" drop in the rear.

Just a quick update. I decided to get the wheels and deal with the drop sitution as it comes up. I'll probably save up and get coilovers and run the right amount of camber. I'll post pictures soon.

Nice choice. Not too many ppl are running these wheels on G's, especially
sedans.

Thanks. I would have gotten then earlier, but didn't know how they were going to fit. Finally, I just said the hell with it. I'll be picking up them up Saturday.

Yea I always like those wheels too. This will be my third set of emotions. They seem to get more aggressive after each set. My first set was the bronze work emotion cr kai in 17x8 +42 then bronze emotion xd9 now these massive cr kai's in yet bronze lol.

Any new updates with your setup?

^ I lowered the front 1/2 inch, but have been too lazy to install my rear toe bolts and get an alignment. I might get around to it this weekend.

OP if you want a semi aggressive set up in the rear that pokes the rim out a little but forcing you to run neg camber then the wheels will work for you. If you don't want to go that aggressive get something with higher offsets. My wheels are 8.5 +23 up front and 9.5 +33 in the back. Here's the best picture I have to show my fitment. Rears sit just outside the fender line and the fronts need to come out another 5 mm to be flush.

I love those wheels what size and specs and who makes them. And what suspention u running ?

Coilovers. I believe that the rear is dropped about 1.4" and the front is slightly more. I want to bring the car down another 1/2" which puts the rear wheels perfectly flush with the fender and only 1/4" or less of the top of the tire showing. Once I pinch the front fenders and figure out where the rubbing is coming from (over big dips in the road) I am going to try to get another 1/4"- 1/2" lower.

Who makes them?

So quick update. I got the wheels today. They're awesome. The offset was mixed. Its +25 for the front and +20 for the rear. Not a huge deal. Going to try and get a test fit soon. I still need to order two rear tires and something to lower the car. I kind of want the quick fix for springs but I pretty sure I need coilovers to pull these wheels off. Ideas?
