Default +12 Volk LE37 owners......what are your settings?

I'm needing to add some more camber to my set-up.....I've still got a slight rub.

Lowered on Tein's....

Fenders rolled.....



What are your camber settings, how much are you lowered, etc......

I wanna give my shop some feedback from other owners.

Thanks.
R.

What size tires are you running? My +12's are on the way with 275 rears. Fenders rolled. Just wondering what kind of camber I'll need.

Sorry I'm not more help

I eliminated my rubbing on +12 te's this morning with a serious roll job.
That said, I am only running S-techs and haven't snapped up coils yet.
I have ZERO rub and I pushed it to the edge and didn;t hear a peep.

Prior to the roll I was literally slashing my own tires.

Setup 245/275 35 series

If you went with the 245/275 like I told you, you wouldn't have this problem.

Are you rubbing in the front only ?...alot of +12/LE -TE owners only run this offset in the front and keep the back at +22 so they can beef up the rear tires to 295+....also xxx/30/19 tires should help. A little less side wall -

Huh. I thought the fronts would rub, but they're free and clear.
The rears prior to the roll were SCARY.
