Fronts should be fine with a .7deg neg camber.

no fender rolling necessary for the front


Would most likely need to run 2deg of neg camber in the rear and move the bumper bracket toward the rear and a possible fender roll.

well the rear wheels in my case are +63.. so that would be fine I'd assume.. unless you were talking to the OP.

ok +63 are good to go for the rears

only the front may require more cambers if you are lowered. if at stock height you may get away with no adjustment necessary on the front.

Thanks for the info.

The car is currently at stock height, and likely will be for a bit. I tend not to modify the suspension until I feel it needs it, and I know I'm not good enough to drive it at it's true limits right now.

LOL I had a similar question and didn't really see the point of creating another thread on the same topic.

Sorry if it offended you or something.

I am buying a set of TE37 rims in these sizes and recommended tires:

17x7.5 +50 -- 225x45x17
17x9 +65 -- 255x40x17

Can I run 06 stock tire on them? If not, can I also run 215x45x17 in the front??

Thanks
