Forgestar F14 fitment help

All right wheel pros, I'm going to buy 18x9 F14's and want to go with +42 front and +37 rear. Conservative, but enough to fill out the wells pretty decently. Wanted to stay square to be able to rotate, but that's impossible to do without spacers on these cars, so fuck it.

These specs put me out 15.7mm/F and 20.7/R. I'm dropped on Konis on standard perches and H&R Sports, so ~1.4/F and 1.3/R, according to H&R. My camber is FL-.7, FR-1.0, LR-1.4, RR-2.1. Tires will be Hankook Ventus V12 or Sumitomo HTR Z III in 245/40ZR18. These are both relatively narrow tires for a 245 at ~8.5", so on a 9" wheel, I don't think it'll be anymore intrusive than a 235 on an 8" wheel, making the 245's a non issue.

Am I good to go without rolling?

Thanks!

I ran 18x9.5 +22 with 225/40/18 and ~ -1 camber all around without rolling or rubbing.

So from my experience, I believe you'll be fine without a roll

Thanks, guys.


Anyone else care to chime in? I'm actually considering going slightly more aggressive at +40/+35 with 245's. This will put me out 17.7mm/22.7mm F/R.

if you're looking to go a bit more aggressive check out my forsale thread in my sig, I have the forgestar F14s for sale in 18x9 +29. I rolled my fenders just in case, but I never put the wheels on so I can't say how it will fit. However, I've spoken to many guys on here who have run an 18x9 +30 wheel without rolling, and they're riding lower than we are. Let me know if you're interested! I'll give em to you for cheaper than any vendor can sell because i'm willing to lose money lol
