I have 275's on the rear now, and it does rub a little, depending on where I drive. I do need to get the camber corrected on the rear though, what are my best options?

Roll the fenders

Since you are putting some power down, you will need the wider tire / flatter camber.

The rears kick out right now, what are my options to get them straight, and stop the uneven tread wear? These damn G/Y F-1's are $ 280 a pop.

I'm running the exact same setup that your looking at, I have my camber from 1.3-2.0 depending on what I'm doing. I am running a 295 on the rear and it doesn't rub rolled. I am on coilovers, so i may not be quite as low as you, but the car is pretty low.

+1 on that. Greg went with some baller ones, I wnt cheap, and someone on here went with Cusco ( i think). Greg got his for not much more than mine, so maybe get with him (as his look a lot nicer build quality). He had to deal with a douche of a vendor, but it all worked out for him.

So for now, a camber kit will correct my tire wear, and 295's w/rolled fenders will help me put more rubber down?

If I were doing it all over again, I would more than likely run a 285 in a 35 series (they don't make them in my tires so i went with the next step 295/30 series) and a camber kit. Yes on camber kit. That way you can adjust the toe / camber to not wear your tires out. you can also adjust it for driving events you may want to do.

Thanks for the help Jason. I will try to make a couple of games this year, maybe we can meet up, and have a drink or two.

+18 and +17 offset and i have a 295 rear tire. Also cut spring mounts. No rubbing issues at all but im rolled. Even if u dont need it i recommend getting it done because it wont hurt anything.

yea atm I regret going with 18s, but We'll see how it looks once I install those springs.
After we do that I'll consider getting some bigger spacers for the rear
5mm aint cutting it =(
