9 wide in the 23-28 offsets. roll/pull/camber for the rears-

8.5 +29-30ish for the fronts-

it also depends if yr lowered, cambered, etc..

so...


7mm spacer in the back (35 is original offset) and a roll and a pull and a camber?

and the front 9'' is impossible...?

I'm still in the process of research for lowering: if I want to get a camberkit, figuring out what I need before: If I wanted to run this extreme setup, what is everything i'd need

rims, appropriate non-rub tires, fender roll,fender pull, camber kit...??? and then...

I've got the springs and struts, what else should I look into changing while i'm there ( bushings ? ...)

I want it to be a one shot trip to the garage...

if you are only going to be on springs and struts, then 17x9s are going to look strange, and you won't be able to get much camber with the combo.

and don't buy sportmax wheels.. try zilvia for some nice wheels with nice specs.....

^ X2. No way 9' in front is gonna look good with springs and struts. Widest I'd go is 7.5-8". If you want 9" up front, get some coilovers or air ride and camber in.

Oh and those wheels you linked aren't even close to "VIP styled"...

Springs strut + 17x9= too much fender gap...

will look like a 4x4. Unless you meat up the tire but then you will rub...
