I guess i have lots of reading to do. From what i've read in the past
-1.5 up front and -1 rear is a good setup for a dd. Reason why i mentioned -2f and -1.5r is so i don't rub since my car does sit a little low.. currently sit at -1.6 front and -1.1 rear

my rims are 17x9, so 255/40 isnt going to be stretch at all.

ill try out 34-38psi, see how it works.

I do know that toe is what eats tire ;p camber is unever tire wear.

 

lol i wouldn't really say ur stance/hellaflush with what ur running :P

i'm running -2.5*F/-1.5*R camber on my 18x9.5 NT03's with a 255/35 starspec and i leave the pressure at 35psi for DD and around 32psi for the track, so u'll be fine around 35psi and wont kill ur tires from camber wear super crazy fast :P

 

lol, im definitely not even close to hellafluash, im at +35 offset
I tried to get 255/35 but they didnt have, so ordered 255/40. I should have them tomorrow or maybe friday, then once i get them installed i can see what kind of camber i need and then spacers, maybe 10mm... seems +20 to +25 offset works real nice

ill post up some pics as soon as anythings done w/ the new tire setup

thanks for all the posts

lol i'm just glad you haven't been converted into one of those "offset is everything" morons

 

Yeah, them people what think about handling and wheel-bearing lifespan are hella annoying.

 

lol

Nah, i want my car looking good but functional at the same time. So i want a good offset +20 to +25, have some camber that actually works well, doesn't just look good, and my car's lowered just enough to clear all speed bumps and i dont have to go cut driveways to not scrape, just a little angle.

I've seen enough cars that are stanced, and running offset anywhere from -3 to -4 and i personally think thats pushing it, and tire stretch is nice, but again, that has its limits also. Hellaflush is nice, but when you have a 9.5-10" rim and a 215 on it, i'd be scared to take a corner Waste of a rim imo.

I had a dream sometime last week in which the term "hellaflush" meant that the auxiliary lights added to the production version of a rally car were mounted in the front airdam, as opposed to on a bar across the front bumper. Quite silly, eh?

 

we need more ppl like you

 

i said i would post a picture, so here it is



255/40/17 on fn01rc's +35 offset
Fenders are NOT rolled, but running -3.1 camber in the rear (WAY more then i want, so getting fender's rolled and going back to -1 to -1.5 max

Front's im gonna get 10-15mm spacers and no work required. Current front camber -2.1. Planning on setting it back to around -1.5 to -2 front

No rubbing at all at the moment, but the rear camber is just ridiculous, not for me.
