Hey, I have a quick question for you about fitment on the 2nd Gen Sedans.

A buddy of mine has a 2008 Sedan and is looking to get a set of WORK Varianza F2S but wants them in F: 20x9.5 and R: 20x10.5.

The thing is, he doesn't know much about fitment and I told him I'd do a little bit of reading for him to help choose his offsets to his liking. Now, after looking at rimtuck:

http://rimtuck.com/thumbnails.php?ve...5+sedan&sort=1

I've somewhat gotten a general idea of what his offsets should be to get him flush. He doesn't want to run ANY negative camber but is not against rolling / pulling fenders if need be or stretching the tire a bit. How would this set up look?

F: 20x9.5 +20, General UHP 225/35/20
R: 20x10.5 +30, General UHP 255/35/20

I was kind of going off the last picture on rimtuck, which I believe is heyitzalex's car before his lease ran out and he got the latest Sedan model. Only thing with his set up is that he's stretching a 40 series tire and not a 35 series.

Edit: He's also dropped on a set of Eibach sportlines for the Sedans.

255 tire will be pushing it and that's close to high -3 or camber. That's without fender pull. Fenders are pre rolled from factory.

245 will be the best bet for the offset of +30. camber should be mid to low -3's
225 will work best for the fronts or even a 235.

I was in the same boat back then when considering Vossen wheels. But no matter what its going to require over -3 camber.

So maybe if I suggested him a bit of a higher offset in the rear then? Maybe perhaps a 20x10.5 +35 with a 245/35 or 255/35 stretch?

yeah, a higher offset will work better for camber. 35 I think is the best offset with a 255 tire.
