17x9 +35 Tire options

[Matt3CivicSi]

But how low are you compared to factory height? Are you really low is that why you had to tuck you're wheels? 245/40 on a 17x9 +22 shouldnt have a problem when lowering it 2 inches all around from factory height. Or am I wrong?

In my opinion Jdmtrans you are too low in the rear that's why you had to run such a negative camber right? Front looks okay. If you raise the back a little you should be able to adjust preload and get a little more positive camber back.. Unless I'm wrong. I'm just going off of what I know.

It's not my car. I'm just copying his info. Look through his build. He puts the wheels on around page 17. His pic before lowering and adding more camber.

So if I understand this correctly 17x9 +22 I can run in the front and have clearance all day and can run a -2.0 camber let's say at lowering her 2½ inches all around I'll be fine. But the rear offset of +22 I can't lower it more then 2½ cuz I'll rub and the only way to fix that is to give it lots of negative camber?

still looks to have a gap between the tire/fender as far as drop goes. +35 offset .... 245/40 tire -

I am an RPF1 whore, had them on my SI. I hope your fitment is much easier than the massive issues I had. I had 17x9 +35 with 245/40 Star Specs. Got sick of running -2.5 camber and still having occasional rubbing, so I sold them. Here was mine:

17x9 +22 offset both front and back should fit fine with 245/40 right? Just depends on how low you are correct? Without rolled fenders

I had to roll mine even with a +35.

I just got my wheels put on, they're 17x9+35 on 235/45 lowered on H&R Sport. The rears rubbed heavily after every little bump but I had fender work done on the rears to fit properly.

How much fender work. Just a fender roll or did u have to get them pulled also? I'm running H&R springs and was planning on getting varrstoen 17x9 +30.

Just a roll in the rears, depending on what tires you get you'll rub, I'm running 235/45 and my it rubs slightly on hard bumps to the rear.

Alright, cool. I was looking into running 215/45.
