front wheel fitment - maximising fitment, lock potential and getting laid
 
as the question asks, what are you running up front to steer with, get heaps of lock and still look good
i was wondering about running 17 x 9 +12 but not sure how they will go with standard guards
thanks again for your help!

i run 17x8.5 +17's up front, but add a 30mm spacer so theyre at -13. I have knuckles, drop outter tie rod ends and rack spacers...and without the 30mm spacers, my car rubbed all over after the steering mods. I have 25mm over fenders and run about 2.8* of neg camber...


for the getting laid.... use 5pt harnesses..make sure to strap all 5 pts of the bitch in the pssenger seat and make sure to look her in the eyes and say "this is the most important one" as you strap the crotch harness... after said run, proceed to find someones enclosed trailer and blast bitches till your groups grids up again... works every time.

So in effect your saying 17x9 +12 won't fit with standard front guards
And that I need a 5 pt harness on passenger seat to increase how much I get laid

17x9 +12 will fit with a 215 tire and around -3-3.5 camber.

this.

I have 30MM overs in the front and run this size, but with a 15mm spacer. so they're -2 effectively.

If you want to getCRAZY with angle you're going to need to notch the framerail in front of the wheels.

I'm running 17x9 -20, steering spacers, custom knuckles, and a sectioned framerail.

Im running 18x9.5 -27 with 30mm fronts and neg camber. PANTIES Are DROPPING!

i just wopped on some 18 x 9 +6, fits with just under 3 deg camber and a bit of love to the guard
225/40/18 sits better on a 9 than an 8
but still i need to extend LCA/Balljoint to clear a few things on the inside

I'm running 17x9 +10 with 215/40's, 1.5in extended ball joints/rack spacers/knuckles with 30mm fenders and lotsa neg camber. I found the getting laid part started working better when I finally put a passenger seat in myself.
