Yes… for sure you must roll your rear fenders.

As terrasmak mentions…

… you need to match your fronts and rears with better “proportions.”

Your stagger-width front-to-rear is excessive and the result is possibly excessive under-steer.

They will fit but you're going to have to roll your fenders so they don't rub.


295 FTW LOL! We still need a exhaust sound clip sir. j/k

why do you want to run -2.5 camber front/back? Can't be for handling reasons....just for looks?

as far as the stagger differences, it will work fine, and is within the 3% front/back stagger that is necessary to keep the VDC happy. 275/40 will work as well (about 1.8% stagger front/back) but may look a bit goofy depending on the exact tire. Don't get too hung up on the # printed on the sidewall, spend some time familiarizing yourself with the precise dimensions for the exact tire you are considering. Each tire manufacturer has this info listed on their site. It's all about the contact patch, as determined by the physical dimension, not the # on the sidewall

I could have swore that BJ from 350evo stated that the 350 Grand Am cup cars used to run more negative camber than -2.5 in the rear.

I'll keep telling you... get a set of 17" or 18" enkei... you'll get back the money of the rims in 2 19" set of R-comp. almost in 1 of 17" (think about 7/800$ for 4 r-comp in 17" 275 all around, one of our sponsors here sells for that amount instead of 1500$)

about the camber for the track... front this car loves it... even with my street kumho xs... -3 is good upfront, the rear you might want to stay around 2.. 2.5 top. the rear gains a lot of camber as the suspension compress, the front way less...

I know toyo says between -2.5 to -5 camber... well.. -2 in the rear works pretty well... and on 19" you don't have so much sidewall flex.
