I don't have the RT-6 wheels anymore I'm on the mesh ones but I got another set coming in February so yeah I'll be switching rims again and coilovers are going on in two weeks
Fenders:
Rolled front and rear, no front liner, rear fender liner trimmed, front fenders kinda pulled from rubbing from previous wheel setup, front and rear bumper tabs shaved, bent, cut, and hammered
Problems:
Very close, but none. Can turn full lock without hitting fender, but will hit side marker. Rear rim clears quarter panel by a credit card
Side notes:
Going to attempt to fit another 10 mil spacer up front and change tire size to 245/35 (if I still have the wheels) for a new spec of 18x10.5 +1F/11R
Do I need to put pictures?
edit:
you can tell the camber from this one
and you can kinda tell the poke from this one (sorry for the big picture)
Fenders:
Rolled front and rear, no front liner, rear fender liner trimmed, front fenders kinda pulled from rubbing from previous wheel setup, front and rear bumper tabs shaved, bent, cut, and hammered
Problems:

Suspension: Tein S-Tech on stock struts, aligned to OEM spec
Spacers: none
Fender-wells: Rolled
Problems: Rears rub at large sudden dips. With rear passengers, rub at every crack. Rubbing is on the corner where there's a clip that connects the bumper to the fender. No issues at all with the front
do you think you can post more pics of this im thinking on doing pretty much the same set up with 18/9.5/ +35 all around with either 265 or 275/35/18 with coils and it look like a pretty good setup
new front tires, got a flat on the rear so new rear tires. now i have no rubbing on my sidewalls. 225/40 falken 392 & 245/40 pirelli pzero nero all season (non runflat)
also i put a photo of the continentals that got ate by my flat :/
& that even tread ....thats 3 months of -4.2 degree camber wear, set the toe and go.
running about -2.0 camber in the rear and -2.6 Front
Tons of room on the inner front, about 10 mm from tire to fender liner at lock...inner rear has about 10mm to body mount of strut
Are you still running this set up on your 8? I just change my set up to 18x10.5 big lip wheels with 225 45 18 tires and is scraping the fender walls with the tire, I did the -2 camber adjustment and still touches, any help will be greatly appreciated
I will post only my rear info because I do not know wheel specs for the front.
Wheel size and offset: 18x9ET15
Tire brand and size: Tracmax privilio 245/35ZR18
Suspension info: stock with 1.5° camber
If a spacer was used and if so what size: no spacer
stock, rolled, pulled, or trimmed: rolled
Problems or not:
No problems with rolled fenders. Before the rolling and camber adjustment, I had severe problems when hard cornering, bumps or rear passengers present.
