How do you figure that? 10.5 +12 is very aggressive for a square set up.

Gerb your setup is amazing. I thought I read somewhere you were trying to put the 265/30 up front, did that work out?

Thread merged with already previous thread on the topic.

An advanced search by title for "square setup" or "10.5" would have yielded you a ton of threads.

i was replying to the question of the varrstoen, not TE's. certainly different wheels have different clearances

i'm pretty certain for varrstoen's you need as low as +12 to clear brembos, and in some cases a small 2-3mm spacer to clear it with +12.

Thats dumb, if you need more than -2.2 to -2.5 out back you have the wrong offset wheel. Thats even a bit to much front camber.

With the +22 yoour looking at? You also want to be able to rotate tires ? Run a 275/30-19 front and rear , a 10mm spacer on the rear , then you should be able to get away with -2 rear camber and around -2 front camber.

If you don't care about rotating tires (honestly there is no need) run the 275/30 front and 275/35 rear with the same amount of camber i mentioned above.

275 is stretched on a 10.5 , its a mild stretch or are you wanting to set your car up for the HellaGay look?
