I was just thinking of doing a build like this if Toybaru don't do anything interesting with the platform in 4 years. Very cool.

Asking about offset, not camber but nevermind, seems this is some sort of super secret thing or something.. I just wanted to know the specs of the rim u will run regardless so I would have a rough idea for myself when I purchase the RB kit...

he was mentioning negative camber because wheel fitment kind of relies on ride height and camber.
youd be able to run a lower offset wheel with more negative camber.... so say a x10.5 +0 with negative camber and mild stretch and a x10.5 +15 or 20 with less negative camber... which would allow for more rubber.
