Have MCA coilovers, with the ability to adjust camber front and back (but i don't want to go more than -1 deg on the rear, front can go to about -2.5 if needed)

dude. no offense but i feel like people don't even bother reading. do you see the first post? there is a reason i made it so detailed.

also could people please stop quoting photos, its frustrating as hell. if you want more pm the person or click their name --> statistics --> search threads started by said person.

yes it will fit. you will pull camber at the top hats to gain the clearance you need at the strut and should be okay. i know people running RS05RR's at +42 with a 265 and they are just fine.

what is the reason you don't want more than -1 in the rear. i would tell you to go at least -1.4.....

mcs, great suspension--what spring rates?

I think this is as big as you can fit in the front basically with stock fenders. I barely can fit a finger between the tire and the coilover.

Did you have any rubbing in the rear

I still haven't been able to take them through the paces, as I have two TPMS sensors clunking around inside the wheels and need to wait for the new ones.

I had done a mild fender roll to fit 265 MPSS on 9.5 wheels with +40 offset. I have driven this setup a bit, and have not rubbed yet front or back.

The fronts are not rolled at all, completely stock.

Rubbing will hugely depend on camber and ride height too.

I run right now -2.3 in the front and -1.8 in the back.

I raised the car a bit before rolling fenders last time. I had almost no fender gap before, now about 1 finger in front and two tight in the back (insert pink/sink finger jokes).

Ended up going with the 245/40 federal SS595 on my 17x9 +35 vordovens. Here's some shitty phone pics of the first test fit; Haven't driven on them yet as I haven't gotten a post-coilover-install alignment yet, but they look pretty meaty for 245's. Fits the rear fender a lot better than I expected

Planning to go lower in the front a tad with less camber but Imma see see how much it rubs first. The rear will be lower after I get RLA's as well.

With a +45 offset? How about the front?

245/45 front
275/40 rear

Will be rolling/pulling most likely as I haven't driven much on it yet but it looks like it'll rub.

JellyForSale · 08-03-2015, 04:01 PM

Heres my new setup, only meaty by definition in the rear.

Enkei Kojin

18x8 Front
18x9.5 Rear

Michelin Pilot Sport A/S3

225/45/18 Front
255/45/18 Rear

Even on stock suspension no rub or issues at all!
