Prash; 17x9.. With an offset around te 30's.... Definately get ur guards rolled especially when hardcornering is needed in any situation... You dont want the tyre to hit your guard.... And a rear camber kit is definatrly needed unless u are slammed hardcore! 9+28 is very similar to 9.5 +30! and im running that on my rears with a strrtched tyre... With my sidewall rubbing on guard on hard cornering!

Just realised I haven't updated with new specs.
So far front only - Advan RG, 17x9.5 +35 - 255/40
Notes (Front only)
- -1.5' camber
- Lowered max on Tein SS
- No guard mods.
As you can see there is a slight bit of poke. Only rubs on full lock, but this is only on uneven ground. I'll be getting some 245/40 when I have them and the rear 17x8.5 +31 mounted.

so im thinking 17*9 +38 with 255/40 front and rear with guards rolled and reasonable camber..will it fit? espec the rear?...the guys in the rpf1 group buy are getting 17*9 +35 which is almost identical so i guess it should work...has anyone managed to fit 9 +38 with 255/40 at the rear?Prash Imaging (Facebook) - Please like!

It depends on how much camber u want to run? ifu want minimal amber, i really really liked how my 17x8.5 +31 looked... -0.55 in the rear and -1.75 in the front, if u wannatackle corners hard, i would make the rear -0.75 at the very minimum, with -0.55 i got the slighest scrub every now and then.. having siad that, i was running a softer setup and wasnt running that stiff.

El update-o
Front:
17x9.5 +35 - 245/40/17 Kuhmo KU36
Camber: -1.4
No guard mods
No scrubbing
Rear:
17x8.5 +31 - 225/45/17 Kuhmo KU36
Camber: -3.2
Rear guards rolled
Happy with the stance and driveablity of the front rims. The stretch on the front isn't over the top, and the rims actually poke out of the guards, but not by a heap, which is what I wanted
Still not overly happy with the rears. I have to buy rear camber arms, as the camber bushers are maxed out. Ultimately I would prefer to find another pair of RG's with lower offset so I can keep the camber (Be it -2', so it's noticeable), but still get close to the guards.

Originally posted by ChargeR View PostLooks great mate! Out of interest how much adjustment do the rear camber bushes you have provide? I am guessing you have the Whiteline ones? I have a set of them that I have had lying around for years un-installed and I am thinking of putting them in.
I believe it is +/- 1'.
The fact you have to take the entire rear rotor/control arm assembly out so you can hydrolic press the top busher out is a bit of a pain in the ass for 1' of adjustment.
