ok i have searched and can still not get how to add up off set when useing spacers


what i have is a s4 NA on 17x8 wheels and 245 40 17 tires at 42 off set

the gap from the fender is 37 mm with near factory camber specs

so my question is if i add a 37 mm spacer will that make it (37-42=15) 15 off set to get it to be flush with the fender

 

Its a +5 offset, each time you bring the wheel out its a negative when you bring the wheel in its positive.

 

oh i type 15 by mistake

so a +5 off set is way to high for the back with a 17 x 8 huh

 

245's on FD wheels with +18 (with 32mm spacers) barely hit the inside lip of the fender stock. Roll the inner lip just a tad and it is fine. About 1* of camber.

 

quick up date:

first thank you all for helping me solve this problem with my car you guys RULE

i got the spacers and put back the stock rear sway bar. understeer is still there but only on extreme turn in and it is alot more controlabe.
