HKS Hipermax III on a 3" drop or more
Camber Currently: -2.5F and -2.7R camber (will be going -3.3 rear)

Let me clarify my wheel specs. Sport wheel specs with 25 mm spacers and widened 2 inches towards the inside. By my calculations this should have the same clearance from the struts as stock sport wheels without spacers therefore I should have no clearance issues as I am going wider towards the inside not out. Any thoughts much appreciated.

1inch = 25mm.

so if you widen 2 inches towards the inside you will need a 50mm spacer to keep it at the same point as without widening / spacers.

Lol! You're right... now I remember why I didn't enjoy math class. =P

In any case, there does appear to be a lot of room back there still so could my setup work?

widening the rear 2 inches and adding a 25mm spoiler essentially gives you a 19x12 + 30 wheel.

I run a 20x12 + 20 and it pokes out about 8mm. but i also run a 325 tire and have very little camber and am not lowered.

If you lower your car and run camber around -2 ish and a 325 tire you may consider a 30mm spacer or even 35. But the good thing about spacers is that they are relatively cheaper. So do the setup, get the tire you want and then when you put it on you can see how big you want to go beyond 25mm spacer.

I'm actually getting adjustable camber arms to correct my negative camber in the rear... The answer I'm looking for is if there is enough room towards the inside of the wheel well to accommodate widened sport wheels on 25mm spacers with 325 tires?

Should fit with a bit of camber. Hated1 run 275s up front, you might want to check out his ride.

the 9.5+ 22 should be fine with 275's easy. I got 20x10 with 275 + 27 and again minimal camber. I think like 1.2 is the camber. So again slightly lowered and/or slightly more camber = should be perfectly fine.



Wow, you're not lowered with camber?! Your wheels and tires are WIDE!

well im lowered like .25" is all. Camber is like 1.2ish

I am sure I could dig up the information from this thread or at least figure it out with the information in here... but perhaps someone can save me from having to dive in..

can anyone tell me what offset i would want to run a rear 335/30/18 on a 18x12 wheel and zero camber? off the top of my head i guessing like a 20 but i bet someone knows way better than i do.

0 camber. +20 would be low.

I cant tell exactly due to the fact that you might be lowered

I am lowered .5" and run around 1.2" camber and my tire / wheels poke out about 8mm. But they dont rub cus when it compressed they tuck in.

But my offset is +20

I would say about a +30, but then if your lowered alot a +20 might do : /

Dont know how lowering certain amounts changes the offset you could run.
