How would 18x9+45 fit on oem height
How is the fitment on 18x9 +45 square setup. Haven't seen to much on this particular size and offset. I'm sitting on stock ride height. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Rear fitment should fit almost flush.

10mm is a bit extreme. There you're looking at stretched tires and some serious bumpstops to get it to fit. |

Hows the fitment? Can you show more pictures at different angles? What's your camber at?

^^ +1. And did it rub on your initial mounting? Did you have to use a spacer up front?

I threw away my alignment specs cause I have to go back and get another alignment after I get some hubcentric spacers. Right now I'm rolling on universal 7mm until the new ones come in. Without front spacers the fronts rubbed on strut. I get slight rubbing on 3 point turns but it is very slight. The rears fit fine luckily. As you can see I am no photographer.

Nice, looks aggressive! I was calculating in my head as I read the thread and I thought that a 5mm spacer might not be enough. Once you get off the front strut then you can pull the pin or get camber plates to help up front. In the rear you can add in up over 2deg of camber just using factory adjustments (if you start rubbing with certain tires, passengers, etc.).
I would wait until you get it more sorted out before getting an alignment, they get expensive. For sure I'd get them to add some rear camber while you are there, just in case (like 1.5 to 2 deg).

You'll get rubbing on the rear over bumps. Especially with a 255 tyre.
Mine used to rub at et42 9j 245/35 tyre. |
