i am thinking of adding spacers to my current wheel setup (19X8 +48et/225's) up to make them more flush. was thinkin of going with a 15mm spacer to make it down to 33 offset. has anyone ran this low of an offset WITHOUT running out of spec camber. Im lowered to about 1 finger gaps all around on TIEN SS. im aware ill have to roll fenders and cut tabs, i just dont want to run negative camber b/c this is my daily driver and i dont want to be wearing down tires all the time. Oh and my tires are Falken 452's which have sort of a rounded shoulder design. Thanks in advance!

P.S. post pics if you are running fairly low offset on 8inch wides

I've ran a x9 with a 33 offset before and I had no problems with it. It will probably sit flush and camber wont ruin your tires. what ruins your tires is the amount of toe you have. If that is adjusted correctly you can run as much camber as you want. ( this only goes to a certain extent ).

oh and hers the link to how they looked on the car, but of course I wasnt as low as you but my wheels are more aggresive now and they're fine.

that looks great man, so no rubbing issues at all with this setup after you rolled the fenders? also you didnt need to run any negative camber?

youll be fine esp if you run with same specs as above mentioned. as long as youre aware of tabs and fender rolling. p.s. fronts are gonna fit easier than rears and front fenders are gonna roll easier also... you may wanna consider staggered spacers and/or just dont forget theres work involved in this process( seems you got that figured out though so props)

Off topic, but 09type-s I saw you on Tuesday rolling down whyte by the university. I wasn't in my car, otherwise I would've honked but damn dude your ride looks sexy.
I can't wait to have that meet, but I want my car to be complete first

..late June...?

alright cool, so id have to rool the front fenders too, i wasnt aware of this...yea i was thinkin of going maybe 5mm n 15mm in the back or 10mm and 15mm. thanks for the input

09_Type-S

oh cool haha that was probably me, im always in that area. yea lets have the meet, im ready when you are.

oh i didnt mean you'll necessarily have to roll the fronts... they may fit, ive never tried the size you got. i meant its good you know that fender rolling is gonna be part of the process, and if you do have to do the fronts, they're easier. post pics when done !

p.s. ever perhaps thought of a 10mm front spacer and 15mm rear? final +38 front +33 rear?

09_Type-S

yea i think im leaning more towords this route...thanks..im still deciding weather i should or not, if i do, ill post pics for sure

i think it'd look better w/ 10's front and 15's rear honestly... wheels that push limits towards their fenders look better this way IMO, i dunno why exactly though...

doooo it
