goodluck clearing rear suspension and inside wall.

higher is not always better
How high is too high? We're so rarely faced with that problem. Spacers could be used to reduce offset, but not increase it, so I would go with the higher offset if given the choice. But if his higher offset choice is too high and you know that for sure, please say so!

id go w/ the lower of both offsets.. or the front high and rear low.

lowering car... will make wheels camber neg... (after 2" drop most ull be able to correct to is -2.70* camber...)

when u hit depression in road... wheels CAmber in w/ compression so what will hit will be inside.

u could correct w/ spacers.. but wouldnt u rather have a wheel that fits right

now... cornering+rubbing is diff... because as cornering. the wheel compresses but also pulls out.. u should be fine tho. esp w/ drop

at 1" drop ull have as corrected as possible -1.9---2.2 camber in rear which will make up for the added offset

hopefully ur gon run at least 225 fronts and at least 265 rears

So you are saying that I should go with the lower offsets? I was actually planning either 215/245 or 225/255
