^.......Read post #'s 12, 15, 17 and 20

Jdm.. yeah, i agree.. the fronts are actually barely rubbing the coilovers... and like i mentioned, they are tucked just a bit in the rear... So do you think dude didnt know what he was talking about.. I started thread to find info about how offset works... and i didnt get alot of help...So ill ask... does a neg offset widen they wheel base..? or a a positive offset?

A lower offset will push the wheel towards the outside of the car more. A high offset pulls it inwards.

Alright, I drew up a quick diagram of what's going on with my setup. Right now I'm running Tein S-tech springs and stock shocks.

I'd like to go F 18x9.5 +10 and R 18x10.5 +5. I've got 30mm front and rear fenders. I would like as flush a fitment as possible with slightly stretched tires.

My questions are:
1) Can I fit an 18x11 in the rear?
2) What size tires should I run?
3) Will I be fine using camber plates up front and individual camber adjusters in the rear, or are coilovers recommended for these sizes?
