Yeah i think mine might be like that. I looked at one site to look for camber kits and i saw camber bolts for the front but not the rear. Camber bolts wouldnt even give me enough camber anyways haha

In that link you posted the pic on the left is how the rear coilover looks on top, and the right pic is of how the front coilover will look. Notice that the pic on the right has camber adjustability (the two slots on either side of the center). The pic on the left has no camber adjustability. Hopefully you didnt buy it yet.

Nahh i didnt buy it. But yeah i know the right is for camber adjustment but isnt thatfor the rear? Thats what i was asking cause im pretty sure the megans only have camber adjustment in thefront, not the rear so i thought i could maybe get those rear camber plates

+20 is the max if you arent rolling your fenders at all. But if you are, then i would say probably like a 0 offset, cause theres a guy i saw with a 0 offset and his fenders are rolled. This is only for a 16x8. Dude a 17x8 will be rubbing everywhere. Our cars are not made with big wheel wells like the 350z's and evos and all those other cars. I think the biggest for 17s is like a 17x7.5 depending on the offset and how beefy or thin of tires you want. 17x9.5 with a 20 offset, i doubt thatll fit even with the fenders pulled a **** ton

Oh and i have the owners setup link. Its soo dope though. His rims are 17x9.5 but his lancer is the 05 or 06 lancer ralliart which has bigger wheel wells

05-06 ralliarts have bigger wheel wells than 05-06 lancers?
did not know that. gonna have to look into it.
im just asking because im on the fence on either coils+17x8 et25 all around, coils+17x8 front, x9 rear et 25, or just stick with tein s techs+ new shocks +buddyclub 16x7+205/50/16 (basically ralliart fitment).

Naw bro, that is for the front, when you get your coils you will know what im talking about. The Rear struts only has two holes where the two bolts on the rear strut connect to the car. The picture on the right has three bolts and is way to wide to fit where the rear strut would.

My first wheels I ever had were 17x7.5, Im guessing with a +35 or +40 offset, on tein s-techs and that **** would rub like a ****. The s tech do not drop the car low at all and i was rubbing so that tells you that you might run into problems with coils. Another problem you will have is actually finding a 17in wheels that is 4 lug with low offsets and wide dimensions unless you either (1) do a 5 lug conversion or (2) order a custome wheel. Like i said before, our cars might be able to pull off the lower offsets if we had camber kits available but we dont. If you want wide wheels i would go with 16x9 at the most with +15 being the lowest offset which would definitely be poking. If you want flush fitment the best in MY opinion, and this is just from my experience with the three wheels setup i had and seeing other lancers, would be 16x8 +20 in the front and 16x9 +25 or higher in the rear. Or you can get 16x8 all around with +25 and than just buy spacers until you achieve the right amount of flushness lol so for example, 3mm spacer up front with a 5mm in the rear to make all wheels flush but honestly you dont need one up front because mine are flush in the front with +26 and 0 degrees of camber. But if your into poke, and mexiflush, and all that other jazz than i cant really give advice on that....
