Looking at picking up some wheels to track, as always there's some indecisiveness creeping in. I'm getting a set of Konig Hypergrams, 17x9 +40 up front, going to run a 245 or 255/40/17 tire probably around -2 camber, which shouldn't be an issue. When it comes to the back, I'm going 17x8 with either a 215 or 225/45/17 tire, but I'm on the fence between +45 or +35 (I'd split the dif but it's not an option). I know that ideal for track is +45, but with some negative camber it starts to sit inside the fender a bit more than I like, am I going to have any issues rubbing with the tire on a +35 wheel? I'm only lowered on Swift Spec -R springs, so it's maybe a hair over an inch. I'm on 18.8.5 +42 right now with a 225/40/18 and there is still a good amount of room.

Any input would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Chris
 
Also note his camber specs
 
Running a +22 now, had to pull the front fender a lot to get it to fit with the 255. Even if it was a 245, you'd have to do extensive fender work.
