You do realize that wheel placement is both wheel offset and width dependent, no? You can't call for a +5 or less offset wheel (because that looks good, in your opinion) without stating a width, as a 8" +5 sits very differently (i.e. less aggressive) than a 10" +5.

And for the guy asking asking what good is having a wide tire with a lot of camber, the idea is to have more traction while cornering, not while going straight (in most instances).

i suppose i was just trying to see what the eibach sportline looked like with a square setup (18x10.5) all around. i've seen the sportline drop but only with staggered setups. i guess i can use my imagination until someone chimes in? lol

+5 front(currently +10)
+3 rear(currently +8)

Ive purchased some wheels with the sizes 20x11 and 20x9.. I was thinking of running 245/40 fronts And 275/40 rears would that be a good size? Or should i go with a 35 sidewall
