A question for all you RPF gurus.
In preperation for the arrival of my RPFs I rolled and pulled my fenders. I was able to sqeeze a 9.5" +53 with a 265 on OE camber settings. I drove it around and was not rubbing even at full lock.
Does this mean that I will be able to run a 255 on the 9" +45?
I'm just concerned about ordering tires and then realizing that I could have gone with a wider tire.

with a roll and pull will I be able to put a 265 or 275 on a 9.5" +38 on the rear? (and not have to go crazy on the camber...)

255's will work with allot of camber -3min with fender roll/trim and bumper tab re locate work.
Just fyi for anyone that cares, -3 camber is about the maximum you want to run to retain maximum traction in the turns, strait line braking and transitions are going to suffer the more camber you run. Airing down the tires a bit helps spread the contact patch again, but you will start riding the sidewall. If your car is more of a trailer queen then by all means, but if your actually trying to retain or enhance the performance of your car. Keep this in mind. Generally no more then -3 in back and -4 up front maximum.
