I am running the same setup
RPF1 18x10.5 with TOYO R888 295/30 18 all around. With -3.2* up front there is no rubbing whatsoever. I am lowered on Ohlins around 1". In the rear I am rolled as much as possible with slight pull. I am only running -1.3* camber in the rear and it is rubbing pretty badly. I need more camber in rear though and I am hopping with -1.7* there won't be much rubbing.

I run the same combo, and run -3.2 up front and have a slight rub. Looking at the 9mm difference, you should be able to drop to about -2.7.
I would just install them, remove the spring, compress the suspension and set camber where the do not rub. That would be the best way to set the minimum amount of needed camber. If you heavily track, you will probably want more.

Hey guys, I looked through all these posts and elsewhere on the forum but didn't really find anything to help me...
I'm about to wrap up my first year of autocross in my local area (08 NISMO) and I'm trying to research some setups for next year where I plan to run under the new B-Street Category.
The new rules, as I understand them, allow me to change the wheel diameter by 1" while maintaining the same width and allowing for a +/- 1/4" offset allowance.
Now my dilemma is that the 19x10 rear wheel is not very friendly in sizing for the "tires to have" i.e. Rivals, NT05, ZII only makes up to 275 in a 19, etc.
I've been trying to look for an 18x10 inch wheel similar to stock offset (+30) that i can use for track days. Anyone have any experience or know of a good track wheel in this size?
If i cant find a good wheel for the rear, then I am planning to run the new Yokohama AD08 R's: 265/35R18's up front and 295/30R19's in the rear. I feel this should be a good improvement over my stock RE050's by allowing me to take advantage of the wide stock NISMO wheels.
Thanks for reading!

Thanks! I did a test fit on the front with Raijin 18x9.5 +15 on a 275/35 tire, it extended too much from the fender than i expected. I have stock front camber, -0.7/-0.8 I guess, and stoptech st40. I don't know if more negative camber can fix this or stoptech has a thicker aerohat?

Would you say the aftermarket arm is needed for stock height? With running the 275/35 up front, would an offset of +20 or +25 just be an easier option instead of +15?

So I will be pulling the trigger here soon on 315 g force rivals and have not been able to find too many that have run a 315 square. It will most likely be mounted on rpf1s 18x10.5 +15, fenders are already flat and fronts are fairly pulled have roller if more is needed. Camber is at 2.7ish front I believe 2.2 rear anything else I should need to fit these? I am also probably lower then I should be Aswell but have no issue slightly raising if I must.
