Thanks a lot and I'm running 18x10 18x11 +37 all around 225/35 and 255/35 I had the car repainted and quarters pulled as well as the fenders up front. Running -5.5 out the rear with ball joints ad -2 up front. You definitely need fender work or -6 camber for the rear the front could be a little more aggressive but I just played it safe I probably should have went with a 235/35 but I didn't wanna run into any problems. 245 on the rear and you can get away with no ball joints just using stock camber adjustments but I wanted it a little meatier back there.

Guys so I'm trying to get a pretty flush setup without having to go crazy camber.
Car is only lowered on Eibach prokits right now but will be on Buddy Club N+1's soon. Dont plan on slamming, but do want to remove all tire/fender gap.
I know these aren't ideal specs... but they're wheels I have already and would like to make em' work.
Will I need a lot of negative camber to make this fit with minimal rubbing? If so, I'm probably not going to bother. I like a flushed out look but not a fan of wheels basically being diagonal on the car.
FR: 18x7.5 +19 on 205/40-18
RR: 18x8.5 +22 on 225/35-18
Opinions appreciated

Hey guys,
Got my S bout 3 weeks ago and planning on ordering coil overs and wheels pretty soon. The wheels will be 17x9 +30 F & 17x9.5 +15 R. My question to you all is mainly the tire size. I want as much meat on the wheels as I can while still being slammed with some camber (max camber 3.8-4). I was thinking a 215/40 F and 235/40 R. Not really a fan on the 205 on 9.5. All corners will be rolled with no pull. Any help/suggestions welcome!!

Thanks K.Shift!!! Needed some direction on this one. Think I'll try 205/40 up front and try and find a 225/40 then.. I work at a dealership and our tire distributors didn't have any options for a 225/40/17. Know any online sources I could find em?

from what I know, there is no such thing as a 225/40/17 tire.
You can fit that set up with about 4 degrees of camber and roll the fenders completely flat and slight pull on a 215/45/17.
This is a 17x9 +22 on 215/45/17.

Much appreciated danio and btw ur setups have been damn near godly!!!
Yea I was wondering about a 225/40/17... So my next "noob" question (and I've already been through most threads) is.. 215/45 gonna stop me from slamming it that much more than going with a 215/40?? Cuz right now it looks like I'll end up going with a 205/40 on 9" and 215/40 on 9.5

Hey guys,
So i got my wheels and coils on and love'n them. I drove around for a couple days and have let the springs settle and now its time for me to get my alignment done before i tear through these tires... My question is, I.m maxed out on my rear coils (shop told me), how do I go lower so that my rear looks even or very close to my fronts (gap wise)

from what I know..you have 2 options since your tracks are maxed out....you can remove all aspects of preload (Spinning the spring collar down) so that it'll sit lower...which most wont recommend as it can damage your shocks...or you can get extended springs or i think theyre called "helper springs" so you can still lower the spring collars but still have the extra springs to keep the preload intact..
not sure if i explained it correctly.
