So im currently trying to fit 15X8 +10 on the rear and i would think its possible but jmorris did it. Im running coilovers with megan camber arms (which are basically the same size as stock?) and it still pokes like crazy! has anyone else managed to fit +10?

How do i achieve this much camber?

Under the car there is a bolt either side of the subframe. Thats the camber adjustment from factory. It doesnt look like youve touched that so turn those from the back side. Should get about -3 degrees.

Also get the fenders rolled and pulled. They should be able to be pumped more then that.

Is that the bolt with the oval type of washer on it with lines marked in it? Id been wanting to adjust it but I have no idea.

Yeah man roll youe guards heaps easy to do, and it should be able to fit your wheels in just with that.
 
Dont touch factory camber. No need, you have camber arms!

They are adjustable you know? You have to bring them inwards lol

You cant pump a sedan rear because its very thin and dense near the back door. the fenders have been rolled already. it just pokes about 1.5cm.
Ok ill try the factory camber, thanks

no, no, just no haha. my wheels poke about 15mm, rolling the guards isnt going to help the car fit over the wheels. Rolling guards just stops scrubbing. If i drop it any lower than the wheel will scrub on the visible arch.
 
Its more impossible on coupe because we have no rear door to pump.
Front can be pumped easy though. No need but.
Ill link the right camber arms when im home unless someone can link before then

but you can still pump the whole guard? there is like 2cm of metal on the front half of the fender so it cant be pumped out.
Thanks!
 
You can pump the rears.. Its just not a massive amount. It more or less bends outwards on the lip tho. So half assed pumping :3.

But adjust the factory camber. Mainly because you probably need to drive the car. and there is no harm in doing so :p
 
Theres heaps of harm adjusting factory camber. Throws the tow way out.
Ive done it.
Do not do this.
 
Changing the camber in anyway would throw that out. I should of mentioned it will need an alignment aswell.. Thought that was a given..

the bottom arms moves the bottom wheel outwards, where as the camber arm moves the wheel inwards, the bottom is where all that important adjustment is. I camber using factory adjustment, hit a bump almost crashed. I pulled the megan camber arm in 100% as far as it could go. Drove like that for 2 weeks.

Im actually speaking through experience ive been in this exact same situation.


You cant shortcut fitment.

Or your gona have a bad time.
 
need the camber arms to pull it in thom, not adjust the factory camber bolts as that just pushes the bottom out and leaves the top almost where it was.
 
Ah yea forgot the top would stay pretty much in place. Thought it might help get the wheel movement away from the fender a bit if he is driving it like that.
I wouldnt go touching the rear adjustment with out getting an alignment anyway. With or without the camber arms. Still going to need it.
