Ok everyone, I apologize up front for being a lazy *** jag, but my Internet time is limited since I work two Jobs. A while back I got some 9.5x18 +20 with 245/40s on them.. I've got to get a re alignment due to a tiny wreck... Can anyone give me some specs on what the set up should be? The camber in the wheels were pretty aggressive and obviously I'm trying to go for the same thing...
Thanks!!!

hhmm look up tiltmode43 he knows his stuff, and pretty much everyone in this thread are stance savvy. I have a similar set-up just +15 offset. the lower your car is the more camber you can run, but I guess -3 or better is a good starting point. and maybe a little more out back. do you have any pics of your car? do you have coilovers,camber arms etc?

yea looks fine what are you looking to do? I guess you can go lower if you lie and run more camber. but It looks fine to me. what look are you looking for? more aggressive,wider wheel/tire.

Anyone have some suggestions for wheels? These are my required characteristics:

- 18" or 19"
- 10.5" wide (+12 to +15) or 11" wide (+20 to +25)
- Non-staggered

I'm on a budget and I need to still get center caps, lugs, valve stems, and rings (if they don't come with the wheels already), and not to mention tires.

My first idea was a set of VarrsToen ES 1.1.2 in 19x11 +25 (BBS LM replicas), but they are back ordered 6-8 weeks.

Second idea was a set of GramLight 57D-R in 18x10.5 +12, but I just find them very plain (no dish, no concavity), but of course I'm betting the quality is bar none.

(This diagram shows the 57D-R in 10.5 having an extreme concave face, but no real life pics yet)


Any other ideas?

found some 18x10 +39 and 18x11 +39 staggered,

would it be extreme to run that with 25mm spacers in front and 20mm spacers in back?
