I'm currently at 9.5 +7 with a 235/35/19 up front and I rub all day long, nothing too crazy, but still rubs.

My motto: if it doesn't rub it doesn't fit

Josan, yes. My rear specs are 11.5 +16

You'll either need A arms or a front pull.
I'm gonna drop my front some more so I can clear it. I'm gonna run 11 0 in the back so I think I'm gonna run a 235/35, You have any pics of stretch of a 235/35 on an 11 or 245/35?

Same here I rub when I turn on flat ground.

I'll add to your motto: If it doesn't rub it doesn't fit, or you aren't low enough.

Gotta be the difference. Kinda sad to be mentioning this but I put on Yokohama 225/50's a 7.5 and I can't use them for my rear (with 38mm spacer) because they run larger than the Sumitomo's I have. With the Sumitomo's I have slight rubbing and only needing half a degree of camber adjustment and with the Yoko's I would need at least a degree more than that. Another thing I noticed when I bought tires other than Hankook, is the sidewall shape. I like how the Hankook was sharp and had a nice round curve to it whereas the Achilles were fully rounded and would have more chances of rubbing.

235/35 on an 11 looks like a good amount of stretch, and I'm gonna need it!

Nice to see all the setups and advice guys. I'll have to go more aggressive for the next set.

Still needing answer though, how much camber can be achieved with stock upper arms and rear arms? Is there a need to purchase aftermarket arms if I never plan on going oni camber?

Nankangs, they were still a pretty fair stretch, but the tires were intended for 10.5s...

You plan to run 11 +0? What's your plan for the fenders? Or are you cambering it the whole way?

Yes, buy rears.

You will only need a front camber kit if you need to dial in positive camber to make your setup poke and bring the tire closer back to the fender

OR

you are running a very aggressive setup which requires more camber than the natural camber that being slammed gives you.

You could always do a fender pull/flare up front within reason and get away with not need to add negative camber.

Ummm, can't recall how much negative camber I had with stock upper A arms but it's at least -3. In the rear I think around -4 before toe is unable to be set to 0. You can still go a little more and be in spec with the toe.
