Hey guys, just wanna get all your experienced advice here.
I bought some 2.2.2 fronts 19x9.5 +22 and rears 19x10.5 +22.
Had to buy some eibach 10mm spacers as i realised the front's wouldn't get passed the Brembos without them, so got that all sorted.
I did buy some for the rears as i felt that it would look a tad wierd having the fronts wider than the backs, am i looking at it all wrong?
And also been doing days and days of research and am still a bit confused as to me rolling the fenders (arches to us :P). Would i have to roll them all round or just the rears?
Also have BC Coilovers already on, so will be lowering it a tad, probably just enough to have a small gap between tyre and fender.
Cheers for your help in advance!

Drayvn,
The front fenders (arches) are rolled from the factory. No need to mess with them.
Rolling the rear will depend on several variables. Tire size, camber, and how low the car is. Install everything and then see if it rubs. Determine from there if you need the roll.

Hi guys,
Since I have Vars wheels as well, I would like to ask if anybody have the same setup as mine. If so, do you have any rubbing issue. Please see below for details. Thanks in advance.
I just got an alignment after installing the Tokico D-spec kit (F 1", R 1.4" including spring mount mod). This was my second alignment since I got it installed due to the rear passenger rubbing a little even though my fender has been rolled. please see the current specs below and let me know if I should get more negative camber. It's my DD so I'm afraid getting too much negative camber. Please advise what I should do to fix this issue. Thanks in advance.
FR: camber -1.9 toe 0.05
FL: camber -1.7. toe 0.00
RR: camber -2.8 toe 0.05
RL: camber -2.9. toe 0.05
Wheels: F 19x9.5 +12, R 19x10.5 +12
Tires: F 255/35/19, R 285/35/19

350Speed, I'm running the same wheel and camber specs as you, but with 265/35 in the rear. My fenders have a mild roll and pull. Are your fenders pulled with the 285s? Maybe consider swapping the cut spring mounts for stock ones? I actually didn't like that mod because the rear felt a little twitchy after I did it. Swapped them out for stock ones.

SponGer,
I have rolled fender. Look like I will have to go with your suggestion to swap the spring mounts. Now I have to find someone want to do a swap.
Thanks again.

It is a really nice photo... It's too bad the guy who took the picture was driving... So his mirror took up half the photo and he had to crop it. Would have loved for the car to not take up the whole photo.
They are the custom 'transparent blue' that varrstoen offers... They are a lot more expensive than just the regular powdercoat they offer. This is because you have to buy the 'polished' version first, then they powdercoat over the polish with a semi-see through paint...
So up close you can see the polish under the paint... Looks kinda cool.
