18*9,5 +23 with 265's?

Tried searching but couldn't find anyone with 23 in offset..

Anyone here got 265/35-18 to fit in the rear with the same rim specs as in the title?

I have that tire and wheel size with a +37 in the back. -1.7 camber. I barely fit. It's still rubs while driving too.

I mean it would "fit", but you'd have to run a pretty good amount of camber to do it.

People with that offset are stretching 225/40s on the wheels and running like -2 to -2.5 camber to fit without a bunch of rub.

Did you roll your fenders or are they untouched?

I'm planning coilovers and rolling the fenders with a decent (not crazy) amount of camber.. since i don't want to get new wheels or run a skinny 235-245...

They're rolled. Mildly. I don't like that crazy roll and flare bullshit on these cars. Looks dumb imo.

If you're deadset on running that wide of a tire, you're gonna need a hefty amount of camber.

I say change tire size or change wheel size. Unless you're trying to run an extreme amount of camber

Alright,

My thoughts were 2.5-3 degrees of negative camber might do it.. I don't like the crazycamber look either..

Or cut the fenders and go widebody

Minimal -3. I'm running 245/40 on 18x 9.5 +34 with -2 camber all around and it'll barely fit without a roll... And occasionally still rub the tab.

You're going to need like -4 at least.

My wheels barely fit and still rub a little at -1.7 and your wheels are going to poke a full inch more than mine.

I think these guys are right with the camber numbers.

I have 18x9.5 +29 with a 255/35R18
Dropped 1" with -1.5 camber. It pokes out about an inch but at this height I don't rub. No fender mods either. I'll probably need to increase my camber at some point.
