i have a set of black rota grids 5x100 18x9.5 et35? im looking for same numbers BUT with a higher off set (38,40) i love the minimal stretch i have (245-40-18 on my 18x9.5s), but them wheels are too far out. hence i would like to keep my stretch, but bring them wheels back in a little bit.

you want a little more aggressive, i want a little more subtle. whos out there

 

i MAY just MAY take rota torques in 18x9.5 et 35/40/42 PCD 5x100

 

Don't they only make them in 18x9.5 +38 for 5x100...? Never seen a +35 Grid for 5x100.

I had a +38 set on my bugeye with the same tire size as yours and had no issues. I even had a 5mm spacer up front for Brembo clearance too (effective +33 offset). If anything, pull your fender a little more; 2-3mm isn't much.

 

could be. i may very well be running a 38ET. im also scheduled for a roll and pull. ill roll pull and cut liners to see if that will do the trick. meh

 

Once you roll and slightly pull your rears, you should have enough clearance. With that set up, I ran -2.2° of camber in the front and -1.8° in the rear.

 

eh..but me personally, i want to be more toward 0 F/R

 

 

dont be hatin'. LOL

 

Wrong set of wheels then, haha. Gotta put some effort into it if you want to run a wide set up...

 

ya. i have the ability to camber as much as i need to eliminate rubbing. camber plates/bolts/spacers. im just not all about the new tires needed every so often due to camber. the less the better for me. i love my look right now, but not feelin the smack to the wallet with the camber i have right now (unsure of exact numbers but visually cambered, rear) the fronts are cambered as well but not nearly as noticeable

 

zero camber won't wear evenly either.

 

a lot more even than what they are at now. IMO

 

0 camber is AWFUL for handling and would look retarded. If this is what you wanted you should have gotten 18x7.5 +48s. You're not going to get camber wear from running a little bit of camber. 245/40s aren't a small amount of stretch for that size as well.

If you do have +35s, an additional 3 mm of inset is nothing at all.

 

With zero your handling will be retarded. Just like what he said ^^^.

 

meh. ya im realizing that now. if only i could take a pic and show u what the rears are at. my goal is to at least get them more towards 0 (pls explain to me why more tire contact will reduce handling? especially on seasonal tires that have specific "zones" on the tread) IMO, the camber i have now looks retarded. i hate excessive camber. granted i still have to roll my fenders so i can get another alignment (i cant give my wheels much + camber with my fenders not rolled and pulled properly)
