The front will camber a little more.

And sorry I thought it was already on the H techs in those photos. Drop it first and go from there.

1) Is just wrong for a winter set-up. Are you looking to run a really wide rear winter tire. What is the bolt pattern? 17F 18R??

2) That would be a 4 x 100 bolt pattern in a wheel thats probably 7" wide.

3) Are probably the same bolt pattern, but really horrible offsets and would be sunken in.

I would continue your search..
Try looking for 5 x 114.3 wheels 17" (without brembo) or 18" with 8'' - 9" wide wheel with an offset in the 30's for a winter set-up.

Thanks. I was pretty sure 1 wouldn't fit but I thought they looked nice.

Thanks for the wheel sizes I was looking for something like that. I am hoping to get something that will fit semi flush though because I may just leave them on for a while until I save up for my dream wheel (VS-XX)

i got an aggressive fitment question...

i'm lookin at 19x12 -7 in the rear with 275/35/19.
i'm not that low: tanabe 350z gf210 with cut springmounts.
i got -1.5 camber at the moment.
my fenders are rolled and slightly pulled.

my main concern is the actual lip of the rim hitting the fender when bottoming out on the freeway.

i wanna tweak my camber to avoid that. what camber should i look at to start?

With soft springs you're gonna bang fender with these wheels, I strongly suggest going to coils....

Look up eurodres new set up. he 18x12 -1 I think, pretty hefty pull and I think about -4 degrees out back.

Anyone have an accurate idea of what kind of work it'll take to fit 19x10 (-7) and 19x12 (-7) on my coupe? Tire sizes? I'm fairly low on coils and I have an SPC rear camber/toe kit installed already. I know I'll need some fender work done, but I'd like to get a better idea on camber, tire sizes and how much pull I'll need in order to not run -378972398 degress of camber.

I can look around and find it pretty easily I'm sure, but I'm having one of those lazy fridays...

thanks for replying!

is there any way i can get the camber negative enough so the lip won't hit the fender with my soft springs? maybe like -4?

You'll need new camber arms for one. You're looking at a lot of pull and a lot of camber.

My bad, dre is runing -5.5 degrees out back and is stretching a 265 with some room to move.

You do a 265, pull the **** out of your fenders and run -6 or more and you'll clear fender lip. You NEED to be on coils for aggressive wheels like this.

If you need to ask for these wheels they probably aren't for you. You're going to eat your fenders hard.
