Hi Leonardo,
Would I have rubbing issues on the ff setup: - 18x8.5 +42 57xtreme - eibach prokit Looking at either 245/40/18 or 235/40/18. Also, i was hoping i wouldnt have to stretch the tire but wouldnt want rubbing issues either. Thanks! Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk |

I’ve tried to do my research, but I’ve never bought aftermarket wheels before.
Will this setup have any issues? Or rubbing? Or any extra pieces like camber bolts or certain alignment I might need for it? 18x8.5 with +37 offset 245/35/18 Eibach Sportline lowering springs (-1.4” front/-1.4” rear) Thanks guys! |

Will this fit comfortably? My friend is getting rid of his TE37’s in about a year and giving me a good deal on them.
18x9.5 +35 Volk TE37SL’s while being dropped 1” on Eibach Pro-kits on stock suspension. I’ve used the wheel calculator for fitment and it seems to check out. I’ll be running about -2 camber on the fronts to avoid too much poke since the +35 is a bit much. I definitely want to avoid rubbing at full lock. I wouldn’t have to worry about spring perch clearance with a +35 will be running 245/35/18 MP4S or MPSS tired. Is there anything else I should be worried about? Coilovers and adjustable LCA’s are for later in the build since my shocks are still pretty new. |

I meant either -1 or -2 degrees in total while being dropped 1” since dropping normally adds camber. I’m guessing at that setup since I can’t add much front camber even with 1” drop, I’ll have a decent amount of poke at +35. Unless I go coils and then use the camber bolts to tuck in the poke properly. Ahh so many things to account for.

My 18x9 +42 wheels have basically the same inner clearance to the spring perch. Your 18x9.5 +35 is only going to be 0.7mm further away from it. So you will have something like 3mm to 5mm clearance in the front. I installed a 10mm spacer in the front to be able to add camber. Then I added coils to be able to add more camber and a 15mm front spacer. You will want/need coils to "dial" those wheels in.

I think at a minimum will also want LCA; spc, moog, whiteline are all lower cost and will work great! I also highly suggest the bumpsteer kit. It really makes a difference. I installed all the other parts first, then the bumpsteer kit; it gave the car a more solid planted feel. LCA are good because after lowering 1", my natural rear camber was -1.8 left and -2.2 right. This did not cause uneven tire wear, but it looked funny to me. For my rear setup I got: Coils - FA 500's lowered - 1.25" LCA - Blackworks Billet -3.0 rear camber J2 Trailing arms - these center the rear wheel front to rear in the wheel well after lowering J2 Toe arms - adjusts toe back to zero For my Front: Coils- FA 500's lowered - 1.25" Camber bolts - SPC - with these bolts and my tophats I have -2.5 rear. Whiteline Bumpsteer / roll center kit - fixes suspension geometry after lowering - suggested for setups lowered more 1" or more. I am about to change my alignment to -3 front and -2.5 rear, which is better than my current spec. I also got endlinks and sways, but they are not necessary to make the wheels fit like you want.
