That's what I liked about the G fitment scene, it was never a competition to out do each other, we are all willing to help when it's needed. Look at my350, they're all retarded.
Honestly at one point I didn't want Jeremie to be more aggressive. When he said he was looking for new wheels or something I was sh*tting bricks lol. But then I got over it and decided to just push the limits as much as possible for the hell of it.

I'm not aware that 2C ever posted his offsets. Even when we did his S:N feature we didn't include the offsets.

Really depends where in the teens your friend is at. Even then it may not make a difference. I'd have to check back and confirm what his offsets are but I have a general idea, I just keep forgetting.

Yeah, I never recalled him posting either.

Batmobile needs more low BTW.

If 2C is in the negatives, then there might be a comparison.

Honestly, the 37 can run a 10/11 setup in the double digit negatives. It's so easy. Just run a more aggressive stretch. Go down 10mm in width on the tires and 5% profile, gain 10mm wheel clearance. Add a degree of camber, gain 5mm clearance for each degree. Do a fender pull, gain anywhere between 5-15mm clearance. Go more low, gain more clearance.

Plus it's not THAT difficult to figure out offsets. Give the lip size and it can be found out in a matter of a couple minutes. This goes for any wheel. Just makes it more difficult when you don't know if the person is running BBK or not. If they're not, you won't know what type of disc they have, although generally it's a low disk. BBK is always gonna be a high disk and rear wheels usually a low disk.

It's funny because I've seen some people provide how big their lips are and they try to hide the offset. Now when going with custom wheels, totally different story, but each company has an offset chart so....there really isn't much of a guessing game.

Levon, if you go down in tire width by 10mm I thought you only gain 5mm of fender clearance (and 5mm inner clearance).

Ooops, my bad...forgot add in profile as well. But yeah, 10mm more stretch = 5mm more fender clearance.

If you want to think so. He just might be one of the most aggressive G's. I'd like to know the offset on 2C's car to compare.

Well the stretch looks to be a 10.5" the lip is no bigger than 4" and it has high brake clearance because he has akebonos.

Fender retain body line, no pull.

No comber arms, so natural camber (no more than 4)

10.5 0 to +10ish
