Talking

So I am running 205/40/R17 +38 (khumo Ecsta AST, on old Enkei RS-6's) & also a Progress RSB

I have every intention of running this setup on swift springs. No intention of rolling fenders. (but I'm fine with running negative camber -1.5-2.5 up front)

put me on blast if I'm being ridiculous.


Will I have problems in the front or back? I feel like the back will be fine, but will the camber take care of the rubbing up front??
Download me some knowledge!

Jim your taste is perfect. I love your Blue fit & setup, oh and thanks for this thread

Hey Guys, back from the dead a bit....

Just bought a 2011 Sport. Planning on Swift Springs, or perhaps Eibach Prokits (anybody know the rates of the Prokits?)

It appears that 215/45-16 or 215/40-17 are more the correct size to match the 185/55-16 OEM. But, nobody seems to run them. Does this mean that for sure they will rub regardless of the offset I choose?

I don't mind rolling the fenders, and I don't mind a little rubbing that might put a hole in the fender liners. Given that, is a 215 feasible at all?

Thanks
