So I just installed my coilovers today and maxed the camber on the camber plates on both front and rear. I have 245/40/18 tires on them and I've seen other people with similar setups and have the wheel/tires flush to the fender. With the wheels on(they're off now, waiting for the coilover to settle and do a fender roll/pull) the tires stick out about 3/4-1' and that's with about an inch gap from fender to tire.

I plan to tuck the tire and have about an 1", if not a little more, gap from wheel to fender. My question is, would rolling/PULLING the fender achieve this or would i need to run more camber? i.e camber bolts

Also the right front seems to stick out a little more than the left front with the same camber and ride height setting. Any idea of why it'd be like that?

18x9 +30 sits nearly flush on a widebody 2011+ WRX

I havent owned a bugeye or bugeye wagon but my understanding is wagons dont have flares like the sedans so youll probably have to run a less aggressive setup or expect to do a lot of work to get these wheels to fit.

IMO 245's on a 9 inch wheel is a super mild stretch, my guess is that you'll want to go with 235's to get the tuck you want.

what you're trying to do isn't going to be easy, if you're not fully committed, I'd reconsider the wheels you chose.

I ran 17x9 +35 wheels on 245's with just pulling/rolling the rear fenders. That was with a normal street alignment with no crazy camber. It took a good bit of pulling on the rear. I had sedan fenders on the front though so I can't comment on the frontend. Since yours is at +30 you have more work cut out for you.

Also sounds like you need an alignment.

Youll need alot of camber to make it flush. Heres my car for reference. 17x9 +30 235/40/17. About -1.5 camber all around

The rear pokes out a bit but with about -2.5 itll tuck nicely. The fronts are flush with the fender. Also my fenders are just rolled flat, no pulling

But then again these are 17's

Haven't updated this but I actually went down to a 225/40/18 and tucking a little bit of the tire in front and rear. It sits really nice, I just need to pull the rear fender a little more and shave down the inside of the rear fender where it meets the bumper.

I'll try to post up some pics after I lower the car a little more and level the front with the rear
