Will It Fit Thread

Yea that will fit fine unless you are super low, and then the tires will rub on the front fender liners because they are a little tall. 245/40 and a 5mm spacer would be more what I would do. Just skip the spacer if you are more performance oriented than looking flush. If your car is lowered, I would highly suggest the 18x10 +36 or 19x10 +40 with a 265 or 275 tire. Those will require rolled fenders but be on a whole nother level of awesome.

Yes but as I said to the last guy, 255 is pretty tall and with the lower offset wheels/lowered suspension it can rub on the front fenderliner. Most people don't have a problem but then again some people do and I don't want people to be surprised if it happens. 265/30 would be fine.

Hey guys, I need some help:
I want to adjust my camber to give my car a more aggressive stance. I'm pretty sure that our cars have adjustable camber to an extent, but would it be enough to give an 8 that "stanced" look? Could anyone provide me with a better insight on what camber to run that will give my car an aggressive appearance without totally hindering performance?
This is tiltmode's car; this is kind of what I'm going for. I think it looks awesome. Can a stance similar to that be achieved without a camber kit?

Yeah sorry, that's my own fault I don't know a thing about camber or stance in general. Basically I just want more of that "tilt" in my wheels that gives it a more aggressive look. I always thought that this was influenced by camber since I always hear about people making their cars look more aggressive with "camber kits".
So how is a stance like that achieved without camber? Is it all influenced by offset?

Camber is the tilt of the wheel. We don't need camber kits unless the car is obscenely low.
Your wheels don't fit perfect if you feel the need to look "more aggressive." Tiltmode had that much camber out of necessity. If you get more negative camber then your wheels will be more "sunken" and then you will need wider spacers.
Moral of the story, I think you need to learn the definitions of those words and then the implications of their use.

My wheels already stick out of the fender a good bit; would they really look so "sunken in" if I ran just enough camber to give them an aggressive tilt?

I'm not trying to be a dick, it's just that you aren't really saying things in an understandable fashion (to me at least).
1. 9+31 with 245s should not stick out beyond the fenders. You said they fit perfectly like 3 posts ago? Are you not lowered or something?
2. Putting more than necessary negative camber is sort of retarded. It doesn't give you a cool stance. It just wears out your tires.

Camber kits don't work on our type of suspension. We have an adjustable suspension from the factory, but if you want more adjustability you don't get to pay $100-200 like them. You get to pay >$600 for the adjustable arms that JIC or Megan Racing makes. PS I'm still not getting what you mean by stance. Do you mean better wheel fitment, like it allowed his stuck out past the fenders setup to be flush? They aren't interchangeable words in my dictionary. I've been wrong before though.

When I say stance I am referring to nothing other than the offset and camber of one's wheels. Like, to me, having a fender gap filled with your wheels poking out just a bit with a little bit of tilt to them would be considered a "nice stance", to me at least. Isn't that what stance is all about?
Also, you're not being a dick. You've helped me with all of my other wheel offset issues and you're helping me here as well. I'm just confused since camber seems like such a simple thing to adjust, and I don't get how it wouldn't look good...

If you think it would look good, then go for it. Just because I don't understand doesn't mean it doesn't make sense. If you don't rub, then putting more negative camber will just make it less flush looking.
To me, stance is more of a wheels + ride height + overall car attitude type of thing.

Has anyone tried these? I'm looking at Michelin Primacy MXM4 it's a new tire that is symmetrical, so it can be rotated from side to side not just front to rear.
