Wtf is happening in this thread. 16" wheels are too small, 215's on a 9.5 inch wheel are what you need and for the other inquiries. Eek wtf lol

Okay guys..I just picked up some 5zigens :rock: they are 17x8 +35 I did a test fitment the other day and the front looks like it will fit real nice. my natural camber is at about -2 in front and -3.2 in the rear. There's a lot of fender gap in the rear because of this. If I got a camber kit and evened it out to -2 in the rear and added a 5mm spacer, would this close the gap and do the trick? What do you guys suggest? And also what tire size should I run? I was thinking 215/45 (baby stretch for a little extra clearance). Here are some pics.

Fronts look nice:

Just piccked up some Rota D2s 17x7.5 front and 17x8.5 rear +20 offsetall around. They fit OK but for the drop I want I need to do some rolling. Lol. I have 225/45 up front and rub hard. Ugh...

Yall think 215/40s or 215/45s up front will be OK? The rear have 215/45s. They have a nice stretch and don't rub....yet. Lol. Gotta drop it lower.

If your low enough 40s look good. Jerod has 40s and they look great. When I finally go 18s I think ill go 35s

Shadow, to keep close to OEM spec, you need to run the 45 series tires.

40 profile looks terrible on 17's.

OK. So 45s it is. Lol. I've been running them for the past couple days. The 225s up front are rubbing like crazy on turns.

I don't plan to be too low. Who's Jerod?

I know this may be a stupid question but I'll ask anyway.

Would a 215/45 look stretched at all on a 7.5? Or would I have to go 205/45 for a mild stretch?
