Yeah my Verona’s put the wheel out about where these are. There is no rubbing, but there is no more room. I actually think I need to be very careful with tire selection and negative camber settings so that doesn’t change. You can have a tire with same nominal numbers (ie 295/30-20) but within that size, you’ll see some with a section width of like 11.9 and a tread width of 11.6 versus some that may have a section width of 11.5, and a tread width of 10.1. This kind of stuff can be the difference in rubbing or not rubbing when the offset puts the wheel and tire really close to the fender.

I am pushing it about as far as you’d want to with my set up IMO
Cool Thanks for the response. I just started running a very similar setup - a few mm less offset in front and 265 width tires. Max camber dialed in. So far it has been fine. Just a very very slight grazing turning into a steep driveway. I haven't done any track or autocross events with it so I don't know if there would be any rubbing under those conditions.
Beautiful setup. These wheels are top of my list now, brushed silver, on Velocity Red
Those would look good. I have actually been thinking about posting mine for sale on here and running the stockers. I have the car going in for a ecs novi, blower cam and supporting mods, LG super pro LTs and tune. We should be around 650whp, I dont wanna burn through these expensive *** tires lol
great thread and does anybody know if you can use the weld S77s or RTS wheels with Z06 brakes like will they clear? and the Forgestar F14s in 17s or especially the 18s front and back

17 for front is too small the big front brakes wont clear in diameter.you need 18 at least and even those will barely just fit. I have 18 front on my base with z06 brakes they are a paper away front touching the inner barrel of the wheel
