what you have is very aggressive and I guessing OP prob isnt trying to go that exact route.

by reading his post, I dont think he knows exactly whats required to make it work.

Yep, it's quite a bit of work. With my +0 up front I have very little clearance from the stock brakes, so BBK's would be worse. I'd say a 10.5 +5 MIGHT be doable but it would be really close to the caliper. Also, it would require upper A arms that can give you -4 camber for sure and it may poke out just a tad too much, hard to tell.

I've seen The_Stimulation's G before but what he did to his rear wheels and how much camber it has in the back is just plain stupid! I'm sorry but it just does looks ridiculously retarted. The car is meant to have a custom wider body for that kind of a set up, but so far I don't see that. The fronts are bearable though, and looks not that bad. Oh but the wheels look sick, love the Varianza T1S... but the wrong width + wrong offset and that camber just kills it. I mean why man? WHY? lol

I mean if the offset and the width of the wheels is not anyway near to fit on the car, just don't do it and save yourself a lot of trouble in the future. + it will look right, and good.

Geemy, yep quite a bit of work. You can still do 9.5's up front with no problems at all. Thanks for the compliment on the curtains

Shurik, simple answer, I like being different and not blending in. If I could fit a tire on 12" wide wheel I would throw on a 20x12 -8 but I have enough issues with tires rubbing as it is.

I probably could have kept my previous setup and dial in positive camber and it would look much more even with the front but I wanted to challenge myself. Figured I'd max out the charts that Work has to offer.

And no worries, I've had people tell me that the rear looks stupid, retarded, etc. Doesn't bug me because I know it's not for everyone. It serves it's purpose though, turns heads all the time. Even with guys that had a 6 figure car break their necks looking at it, lol.

I hear you bro, but when people look and turn their heads it's less likely positive. It's most likely "WTH is that?" "WTF is he thinking?" probably calling you stupid and all kind of names you know. Unless they give you thumbs up

But hey Im not hating, just not liking it at all. It just doesn't look anyway near being "right".

I would say if you want to challange and make your G different/unique, go widerbody bro. Custom or perhaps with some sort of a widebody kit, that would set it up very nice! I've seen one guy with his V36 do it, and THAT looks different (really unique). + a widerbody would look much more clean and with style, without noticable damage due to rolling of fenders or rear quarter wheel well.

Yeah I get that, but I also do get thumbs up. It all depends on the person.

Custom widebody is down the line. At that point I'll still run a good amount of negative camber, probably around -5 or so to match the fronts, but that won't be for quite some time.

Although your rear tires are scary stretched and your style is a little more aggressive than mine I give you props and a thumbs up indeed. Don't mind the haters.
