The OFFICIAL "I have a wheel offset / tire fitment question!" thread
#1966
Noob to the wheel game....I acquired some new rims (Enkei RS05RR) with the following specs:
18×9.5 + 22
18×10.5 +35
I drive a sport sedan on coils.
Whats is the nicest/beefiest setup i could run in front/rear?
I have 275/40/18s for the rear on hand but I'm thinking they are too big?
Should I go 265 in the rear?
All suggestions welcome thanks!

Like Ravspec said, those are real aggressive for a sedan. Wheels will be poking about 5/8" outside the fenders so those tires he listed 245 front/255rear are about the widest you can run without resorting to heavy camber. If they are still new and can be returned you might consider going about 10-15mm more positive w/ the offsets so you don't have a stretch fit.

Do you have any pics of them on w/ the S techs?
If you're not opposed to running extra camber you can run more tire, but you then compromise the drive somewhat and your tire wear will increase. Your camber in the -2.5 range should accommodate a 275, not sure what camber this post is running but it's a 10.5 +35 on 275s and looks pretty good at the fender, and as you can see the wheels are out about 5/8" from the fender~

I have front 20x9 +38 rear 21x9.5 +24 its a 6MT sedan lowered on eibach pros. Will 255/35/20 & 265/30/21 work? Trying not to run more than 2-3 degrees of camber will the rear rub?

I just got new tires they are rubbing on the rear fenders when I go over some bumps. I am not sure how to proceed?
These are my specs:
Front Rim: 19x9.5
Rear Rim: 19x10.5
-The offset on ebay says 22/22?
Front Tire: Yokohama S. Drive - 245/40/19
Rear Tire: Yokohama S. Drive - 275/35/19
So what are my options now? I had no intentions of adjusting the camber, but if it must be done it must be done. My G is not lowered and I won't be lowering it.
Any help is much appreciated as I don't think the tire shop will do an exchange.

It's very uncommon to run double staggered on G37. But yes that would work, but these spec are not suggested.

Do you think I can achieve the required amount of camber with the OEM control arm?

They are the same part#, just need two kits and here's a link on them

At stock height your OEM arm won't have enough adjustment, you'd have to get a set of SPC camber bolts and SPC toe bolts to get it set up the way you want.

Also, if I install these myself and adjust the camber to my preference do I then need to get another alignment?
Is there anything to align if I already messed with the camber or will the shop just "straighten" my wheels back out in order to align?
