Let's not over-state what is "needed", shall we? Anything over 2 degrees of negative camber is for looks, not performance. So anything that requires anything like that for fitment is definitely an aggressive fitment, and it only takes 8" at +35 to run flush besides. If you want "stanced", say "stanced". If you're after a look, spit it out, we're not mind readers.
Nobody, and I repeat nobody, has enough power in one of these to warrant anything over 265s for grip. If you put 265s on one of these that's standard you are slowing it down badly-- rolling resistance goes up hugely with each 10mm of width-- Road and Track proved this when they slowed their car down putting an oversize width tyre on it. Suspension changes and minor brake upgrades won't require more than 10mm of extra tyre.
Be real, dude.

The post you quoted above had nothing to due with tires genius.
I was speaking of the amount of camber here. If you think anything above 2 degrees of negative camber is "just for looks" you either 1) don't track your car(s). 2) dont track your car often, don't do well at technical courses and majority of track layouts, and probably produce shitty #'s.
Stop being full of yourself, dude.
