Easy . At the front all you will need is -4ish camber, remove/modify the fenderliners and bend the tabs up. If it is a 235/40 you want to run at the back then that wheel should fit fine with just a roll of the guards and the natural camber from lowering.

-4 camber! FML! i was thinking like -2.5, oh well i think 19's are too big for DC5's anyway lol

You can use less camber but it will need correspondingly more guard flaring. Also I think you would have issues with a 19" since any 245 tyre for so large a diameter wheel will most likely be much too large in diameter for a DC5, so that will make it that much harder to get it to clear .

Hey guys

do you think I will have to roll the guards to fit 16x8 +35 (gonna run 225/45, -3 camber) @ the DC2 front?

[daviee17]

running 16x8 +37 225/45 with -1.8~ at the front. i had to roll them but.

[Calsonic_R32]

daviee, any chance you have a pic of your car with that offset?

[ChargeR]

I am interested in pics too, it is uncommon to see 16x8" wheels on a dc2 with meaty tyres

I don't know about 225 tyres mate.. but I'm running 215 and I'm fine. Bear in mind, my car's not dumped... I got about 2 fingers gap

hey guys was just wondering what it would take for me to fit 17x8 and 17x9 +35 offset?? know most of you guys run staggered offsets with the wider rims at the front but would it work with the wider ones at the back??

Im just running lowered springs all around. The fronts dont have too much camber but the rear does have at least 2-3 degrees by guessing?? also guards will be rolled

Oooh forgot to add that i drive a dc5r =)
