What tires do you have on that? I just bought an S and have (4) 17x9 +45's on the way as we speak. Its lowered on springs, not sure where to START with the tires. Planning on getting the fenders rolled, and really don't want to go with too much negative camber. What will look good but also be safe from having too many issues down the road?

I'm currently running Hankook Ventus V12's 245 40 square set up and I'm lowered on Buddyclub coils.

For tires, you should read into pros and cons of going from factory setup vs meaty set ups vs square set ups. You should not have any issues from any of the set ups if they are done properly.

The usual 17x9+45 with 245/40 Direzza ZIII. No rubbing with -2.4/-2.5 camber all around. Rolled flat all around and tabs relocated.

Is anyone running SPC adjustable ball joints to fit 17x9 +45 with 255/40R17 all around? Do they help at all or would I be able to get away without it if I just lower it more to get enough natural camber? Fenders gonna be rolled all around.

SPC balls joints will pull the top of the wheels in I think around 6mm. If you're doing this modification purely for fitment reasons I suggest going to the Origin Fabrication offset bushings. They do the same thing with no additional moving parts. I run these on my car and they make a gigantic difference when fitting the same size wheel all around. The front doesn't bulge and look out of place like it normally does with a non-staggered set up.

I'm to lazy to go find the original pictures, but I've attached a screenshot from my Instagram. It's not perfect but it gives you an idea of how much room you gain. Keep in mind the angle is slightly off, and the camber hasn't been adjusted. It's just a direct before install and after install picture.

Edit: For Reference the least amount of negative camber I could get in the front after the install is -1.5 which is not a problem at all.
