^I'm wondering about that too. What's the car like at full lock? Do you have any clearance issues? and could you take some further away photos por favor? I want to see what it looks like from a distance.

so...conflicted
If I get any REAL interest: cash no trades...I will part with them. Otherwise I'm going to beast it out and get overs. This probably won't happen until the new year, though.
stevensimon - I'm going to get 30mm overs since I'm pretty close to getting them to work--even on stock fenders. I'm gonna switch up the tire combo, so what you're seeing now will actually have a bit more clearance.

Damn with 10.5 in front youre gonna rub, with stock angle maybe.
i just picked up some 18x9.5 -27 and they fit fine with dmax 30mm. You just gotta do some camber modifications or get camber plates in front and a get that subframe bar that adjust camber in the rear.
then when you have the camber you want, whether it be way negative to fit the 30mm rears (which keeps the body lines kinda stock) and have crazy uneven tire wear -OR- keep the camber at zero for better tire wear and use 50mm fenders.
really its up to you but i like the 50mm fenders. a slip on spacer could help if you need it but zero camber and a 275/30 or 35 series nexen or feddy 595 would give you flush fitment with zero camber and those sizes.

30 overs will do it perfect, either bow the overs when you put them on or shave them paper thin...add more negative camber if you have to.
dont puss out and sell these, make them work cause your car would be sooo sick if you get em fitting good!!

Seems like you're running a lot of camber in the front. Based on your front wheel specs, you'd be 19mm farther out than I am. How many degrees of camber can you estimate?
Thanks again,
