again, don't roll them unless you need to. The risk to the paint is not worth it, especially if you don't know for sure if it is needed. Your paint will be compromised regardless if you see cracks or not. You are stretching the metal and breaking the bond with the paint. Not only that, you have doubled the work require to replace the rear quarter in the event of an accident.

With the specs you have given, there is a pretty good chance you don't need to roll

 

I've been looking at your pics since you have gotten your wheels on, and I should first say that you car's gorgeous. Probably because I'm leaning (eventually) toward a strosek/nismo combo, as well.

I see the specs you are running, and I remember you saying how you have run -1 camber and currently have -1.7 with no rubbing. You're saying with negative camber that +/- 2 difference in offset between your wheels and the ones I'm looking at will be negligible. So, how much negative camber is too much to dial in before I start going through tires like crazy?

 

off the top of my head, I think the outer limit of OEM spec is -1.4 degrees. I had my car very neutral at -1 previously and now, upon numerous recommendations, had it realligned to -1.7. Generally if you keep it below -2, you should be fine. That said, I don't think you will even need to get out of OEM spec to run your setup. Your setup is 2mm different than mine... 2mm. I can asure you I have more than 2mm of clearance on my setup.

 

I hate to be the endless typer and question-asker, but bottom line is that if I am going to shell out that kind of money for wheels and tires, I want to be able to look at my car and be totally and completely satisfied.

From what I understand, I can try the setup at -1 degrees, drive it, see if it rubs, and I still have another -.1 to -1 degrees to play with, if need be, to prevent rubbing. If that translates to 2mm of clearance, then I should be in good shape? Just want to make sure I am following you correctly.

I can't believe your car has such a similar setup as what I am looking at and you don't rub. Do you every have any weight in that thing or take corners? lol

 

Go do some research before determining where you want your camber before saying you want it at -1. If you haven't driven your car on your setup, don't even worry about it until you know for sure it rubs. if it does rub, it won't be that much and you can still drive your car

 

Alright. Thanks for all your help.
