Default Toyo r888 help please

I have a set of te37 in 19x 9.5 / 10.5 +12. I currently have Vredesteins 295/30/19 on them in the rar rear. They do not rub. I want to go with the same dimensions on a toyo r888. I am running -2 camber in the rear now. Would this be possible, or would more rear camber be needed? If so, how much?

why a race tire for the street??? Do you have 500hp ?? Do you want to change tires with your oil every time?

Actually, I believe he does. Not a daily driver either so he can probably get away with them.

Closer to 600whp if that counts

He barely drives his Z so mileage won't be an issue.

Jason tells me "I've been daily driving my Z for 4 weeks!"

My response "I've been daily driving my Z for 4 years"

Good place to start would be a new set of rear wheels with a better offset for wide tires.

Dude, Chris hasn't had a kid (at least I haven't heard that, could have had one since the last time I saw him :rofl) but he's getting married. When Chris has a kid, we probably won't ever see him again

He is getting owned at work. He works about 70 hours a week. I'll see if he wants to meet up Saturday....Dave? We may grab some lunch.

To answer the question for others, it has been determined to solve this issue is to sell current setup and buy more wheels
