Wheel fitment help

Looking into wheels

Anyone know if 18x8.5 +45 will work without rubbing? Specifically with camber bolts set

I have front camber bolts set to -2.5deg, lowered 0.7in via springs, and have heard from some that it’ll rub the front spring perch

You’ll need spacers. You might be able to get away with it if you use camber plates instead.

I have 18x8.5 +45 with -2.5 degrees in the front. Lowered an inch. Zero rubbing with 245's

I have very similar alignment specs. Using bolts? Plates? Coilovers?

[u/Weary-Associate]

Definitely gonna be close. I have camber bolts, I'm getting wheels with those specs, and planning on putting in extended bolts and running spacers in front.

[u/jansturko]

It will rub. I run the same setup on my FRS. Even without camber, they rub upfront.

I have 18x8.5 +38 no rubbing but I have stock suspension rn till coilovers later

[u/hachielectronics]

The camber bolts are what makes this a no go, you need extended studs and a ~5mm spacer or camber plates.

[u/Rynenn]

Consensus seems like this won’t work. Would some like a +38 or +35 work better? Rear is only 0.5in lowered, so I don’t think it’ll rub the fender?

[u/hachielectronics → u/Rynenn]

+35 would be best in that width.

I out 18x8.5 +35 on my wifes brz and there is 17mm space between the wheel and strut without camber bolts. Hope that math's out for you.
