And they're concave? I have extremely conservative offsets with my CCW's. You are going to need to run more than 3 degrees of camber, easily. Post pics when you're done, please.

What is the purpose of fender flares if you're not going to cut your fender to increase clearance? You can roll the rears if that's an issue...many people do that.

Are you positive, even with the overfenders? I've PM'd a few people that are running the offsets of the wheels I'm getting on stock body w/-3 camber and fender roll/pull. I figured at least with overfenders I wouldn't have to run as much camber. And yes I do plan on cutting the stock fender .

No, I'm not positive. Your exact offsets and lowering height will influence a great deal. A 10 inch wide concave wheel should look amazing, though!

Ahh...ok I see. Yea I was gonna just go w/the 9.5 wide, but I just said might as well go for it all the way . I'm only gonna lower about an inch or so with Tein S-Tech's. I also have a front lip and will be adding GP sides, so I don't wanna scrape too much. The roads in San Antonio, esp downtown are garbage

You can fit a 275 tire on a STOCK rear panel with +70 offset wheels. Alot of auto crossers have been doing this for a while.

Thanks for the clarification. So it should be no prob with overfenders and qtr panels cut correct?

Sorry to bump this, what are people treating there welded/cut areas with to avoid corrosion/rust? Just hammerite over them or is there more to it ?

Cheers
