The middle pic is actually with camber adjusted by eye. I had them take out another .3 degrees since then. She rubs every now and then, but nothing serious.

Drumma, Our front wheels actually sit at exactly the same place in relation to the front fender... just that my rear wheel sticks out an additional 12mm

That means you can place a 10mm spacer on your rear wheel and it will still fit fine! DO IT!!! what size tires are you running? Your car looks like you have some pretty aggressive camber I haven't had to change camber at all on mine, just running a small tire and cut/rolled the fenders. I can easily fit a 275 tire with no other changes.

03Z33: -2(F) -3(R) degrees camber + stock fenders (not even rolled cause i'm lazy) + 235/30/19(F) 265/30/19(R) = My Setup - Minor rubbing.

I just may get a set of 10mm spacers and see hot it looks. Question - do to stock lugs have enough thread to fit a 10mm spacer on?

you should get the Nismo 50mm studs if you wan to run 10mm spacer in rear. 6 mm is max with stock studs. 60mm studs will allow for up to 15mm spacer.

For those who have the S1's, what are you using for lug nuts. Are you using stock, or aftermarket lug nuts? I was thinking of going with aftermarket, but didn't know which will fit best, and which is a good brand. Is muteki any good? Also, would the short or extended lugs fit best? Can stock lugs even fit in this wheel?

stock lugs are probably too wide and may not have the right taper... I run the Nismo Longs and the Kyokugen (spelling?) open ended ones which both use the same adapter tool (also usefull for theft prevention)

Careful with the Kyokugens, I have had a co-employee break his tool a total of 5 times because the nut rusted onto the lug .. just make sure you use some good anti-sieze.

I know they're cheap and will strip if over torqued or used for too long... I've usually replace my wheel studs and lug nuts 1-2 times a year since the wheels are on and off so much.

I never said they were on your car, just asking if you knew the tire size since you posted the pic and knew the widths and offsets, someone else commented them on being your wheels and the tires being too skinny.

Any one else know what size tires are on those wheels pictured on page 2? (18x11.5 and 18x10)

Just to notify your dumb azz.

These wheels must be extremely light for what they are.

Total shipping weight=80 lbs total. About 20 a wheel!
