I have a choice of two different wheels at 18x8.5 +44 (or I have to go a completely different route). I don't think I need to induce any additional camber at 8.5 wide, but I'm open to correction if I've got the wrong idea here.

I'm hoping to avoid having to mess with the suspension until next year when I can do a full suspension replacement (coilovers, LCAs F/R, R toe arms, sway bars, end links, bushings).


Maybe, it is going to be close. Though a 3mm slip spacer should fix it if you do rub with the 245/35. Like I said it is going to be close. Tires are different in size from brand to brand sometimes; even with the same numbers on them.


18x8 +35 is considered "perfect" fit, not 18x8+44.


I have 18x8 +45 with a 10mm spacer. making it 18x8+35. And, honestly, with -1.5 camber, I could fit a 15mm spacer up front and be flush.
