Fitment guru's :

Considering 17x9 ET42 ARC-8 wheels - seen a few references in this thread and elsewhere, but I am worried about inner clearance when trying to get -3.3 to -3.5 camber with this spec...

I'm currently running stock wheels with RCE Yellow springs and a combination of camber bolts and Velox camber plates to get about -3.3 camber up front (gives approx even tire wear for mostly track use).

How much camber can you add with bolts before running into clearance problems on the stock size springs/perch with 17x9 ET42 and 245/40-17 tires? (probably SX2s)...

I'll try to measure my current clearance this weekend - thought I'd ask for now..

Thanks!
