Hey everyone, sorry to mess up the flow with a question.

I'm pretty low on 18x10 25mm wheels. I added a 20mm spacer just to see what it would look like and I'm rubbing in the front when making wide turns. I have 245/40 tires. Would getting a 35 sidewall help ?

I'm feeling rather nice and I'm pretty sure I'm going to open pandora's box here

but you provided us with no info on your camber and fender work

The idea is if you don't need to stretch then don't. Do fender work and play with camber. No we will not tell you how much fender work you need or camber as that depends largely on you.

Sorry the fender is stock 45* angle. So what I'm gathering is a fender roll and more negative camber will prevent me from rubbing, right ?

Just drive until it stops rubbing. Use a phone book or let the fender chew up the rubber on the tire. Problem solved.

Don't be a poosy.

More options less imagination, I think the wheels on the Z are sick but the camber needs to be a lot closer front to back

Do you have any other pictures of the front fenders/fitment?

I'm just curious since those specs are similar to what I may be running in the future for the front

All I've removed is the under tray, and fender liner. I haven't removed the screw yet.
