Would it be correct to say I have 5mm of clearance on an 18x9.5 +43 wheel on a 235/40 tire? (Approx -1 degree camber)
Yes, rim clearance +3mm.
Tire clearance, 10mm difference, so half that(half inside/half outside), so another 5mm added to the 3mm offset difference, for a total of 8mm. (plus a tiny bit more sidewall clearance from the tire stretch)
