Once I dial in another degree or so of camber it will be perfect. As it sits now it's pretty good (with nothing other than camber bolts).

FYI, 9.75 will poke out of the back. 8.75 will poke out of the front. If you want flush with stock fenders, 7.5 in the front...8.75 in the rear.


They do not poke with springs and -1.5 degree of camber, it is flush. And actually the rear needs a 10mm spacer to go flush with the front.
That is running the 18x8.75 +35 with 235x40 tires.
I don't have any direct over shots since I'm working but these are pretty close.

Hey @HappyDriftFriends can you get a side profile picture? Trying to see if the bright colors make the 17" wheel look too small compared to the 18".

Thanks!

what do you guy think would be the best tire size to go with on 17x8.25 527's? The offset I have is 35, and I have Hotchkiss springs to install soon that should give me a 1" drop.


Would I be better off with 225/45 or 235/45 sized tires?


Thanks.

Not 527 or 530, but figured I'd share. Went from 17" 526's to 18" 968's.

Is the XXR527 more concave with the wider wheel? Would the 9.75" width be more concave than the 8.75"?

Yes. There was a picture of each concavity with each width, but don't have time to find it right now.
