i got use to the way it looks and doenst look bad... focusing on having my car set up more for track at the moment...
I feel ya. I started drifting in a with -4.5 degrees of camber a towards the end of the season I pulled my camber out to -2 and it helped with tire wear and control.

Wished I was happy with a non stanced car. Driving on a meaty aggressive setup is so much more fun.

IMO aggressive stance with minimal rear camber is the future. I'm running -1.5 in the rear and -4 up front for a track setup and I think it looks perfect. Its just a different type of aggressive stance than most people just worried about looks.

Spacers are ghetto...

245/35/19 on 19x10.5 +0 (ill get it adjusted to -2.0)

Fronts are either going to be -25 or -31 with spacers. (This way, the wheel gap wheel be gone.) However, the rims are going to poke over the pulled fender about 25mm if i go -31 with spacers.
Would this be too ghetto? lol

For rear, i would need to bring some spacers over to fender roller to see how much fender pull i want. But right now, i'm thinking -20 with spacers.
how much offset would you recommend for my wheel set up?

How did you manage to stretch the 245 on the 12j, what method? I used the cheetah and it wouldn't got past this with 100+psi, ima leave them in the sun tomorrow with all that pressure to see if the rubber loosens up a bit and pops in place.

So I threw some spacers up front and I'm at 18x10.5 -5 right now, but I'm running a 245/40 tire up there. Rubbing and smelling rubber everywhere I drive, and my fender is definitely leaving its mark in my tire. I'm pretty sure it's rubbing on my bumper even haha. So what should I do, pull my fenders even MORE, or go with a smaller tire? What tire... 225/40 or 235/35?

I'm already running -4.2 degrees of camber of front. Forgot to mention that lol. I only need a little bit more space! It's almost perfect. The whole setup in total is 18x10.5 -5 -4.2*and 18x10.5 -15 -1.5*. 245/40 tires all the way around. I KIND of feel like my wheels poke more up front, but that could be just because my rear fenders are pulled a lot more than the fenders up front.

Maybe I need to raise the front end of my car a little. The fronts are pulled, but I can give them more of a pull tomorrow. My toe is also aggressive. Most of my rubbing is right around where the fender and bumper connect and around the area, but is also rubbing along the whole fender basically. The weird thing is, is that they rub more in a straight line than during turns lol.
