How much poke/camber would I have to run with this setup? I don't want to run excessive camber but I want a nice flush look. Also should I run 255/35 and 285/35 or 245/35 and 275/35?
19x9.5 +12
19x11 +12
Or would these sizes with +22 and +25 offset respectively work better?

Is this alignment spec. good for a coupe lowered about 1.5-2 inches?

Left Front Camber After/Before = -2.1 / -1.6
Right Front Camber After/Before = -1.9 / -1.4
Left Front Caster = 8.6
Right Front Caster = 9
Left Front Toe After/Before = 0.12/0.08
Right Front Toe After/Before = 0.15/-0.05

Left Rear Camber After/Before = -2.2/-1.5
Right Rear Camber After/Before = -1.9/-0.9
Left Rear Toe After/Before = -0.43/-0.96
Right Rear Toe After/Before = -0.43/-1.32

Fronts decent but rear camber & toe could of been better matched.

Can you elaborate more on the rears? I was told that I could of gotten toe near 0 or a bit positive but my rear camber would be well over -2.5, possibly -3. The alignment shop advised that the spec provided above is best for tire wear... not 100% positive though.

^ I'm talking about matching the left & right side camber & toe specs to each other. Could of been more closely matched.

Hmm.. they seem closely matched to me. The actual alignment now would be the left side numbers.

Oh damn, looked at it wrong. What size wheels & tires you running? Also offset?

My camber specs are more aggressive & my toe spec is way less than yours. My front toe is at .05 with -3 camber & rear at .15 with -4 camber.

Maybe someone else more knowledgeable in this area can chime in but my alignment guy would be looking at me like WTF with those toes specs.

I am ready to buy wheels for my 2003 G sedan. I want to go with 20x8.5 +20 in the front and go 20x10 +40 in the rear. Since I might have to roll my rear fenders and I definitely want to slam it (front and rear camber kit and Coilovers ect.). Should I work on my suspension first or work on my wheels and tires first?

whats up everyone. kind of a noob so sorry in advance. I want to get 20x8.5 +20 wheels in the front with 245/35/20 tires and in the rear i want to get 20x10 +40 with 275/30/20 tires. I also want to lower it. Do i need a camber kit in the front and rear with rolled fenders in the rear to fit my wheel and tire specs?

Thanks

I just got my car realigned yesterday, here's my spec sheet for comparison. I am lowered on 350z S-Tech springs (about the same drop) and have a camber kit in the rear but not in the front.
