rolled the fenders, thinking of going +4 offset in the rear.
i have about an inch or more clearance between my tire and fender after the roll. thinking of going gangsta in the rear with a 20mm spacer, essentially making it +4 in the rear. this too much? maybe a 15mm at +9 might be wiser. any advice?

10.5", 275/35/19, i think either +4 or +9 would work but i might want to do a 295/30/19 in the future.

If you have an inch or more clearance, then run a 20-25mm spacer.

my advice is like killing a cochroach with a nuke, but just get the wheels you want, then MAKE them fit! i've got a porta-power that flares fenders nicely.

I agree... I would sell the wheels and get new ones with the appropriate offsets. Always the best solution imo.

I say 15 if you wanna be safe, and 20 if you wanna be gangsta. Look at this space you created by rolling your fender.

^^I'm talking about the size of the spacer, not the offset. As in 15mills which would give him a 9 offset vs 20 mills which would give him a 4 offset.

You already have negative camber stock. You have even more when you lower. I have a 1.5" drop on the rear and I'm at -2.5 degrees camber.
rolled the fenders, thinking of going +4 offset in the rear.
