Nope, it doesn't affect poke or inset.

I just saw a 18x9.5 +37 set up and i love how it sticks out. Would a 19x9 +29 stick out as much ? Or more ?? I wouldnt mind it sticking out a little bit more. Thanks
The 19x9 +29 will have 1.6mm more poke than the 9.5's

maybe the roads really are that bad in Toronto.. I'm going to have to advocate to people that 18 x 9.0 +36 on a lowered setup will incur slight rubbing The rubbing is mostly happening on larger dips are higher speeds, and certain mall/gas/parking lot entrances with a bad curb.

I guess Toronto really has a lot of bad curbs and bad roads at the moment. It's really really really bad out here.

The rub seems to be on the plastic tab though instead of the fender lip. I am running -2.2 front and -1.8 rear camber.

That doesn't rub for 99% of people.

18x9.5 +23 with 245/40s all around. Easily doable, but front sticks out too much for me. I might go +23 rear and +28 front or +28 all around. Not sure

Thanks ross. Ill go with the +29. I figured +7 mm isnt even a centimeter its about .7 cm which isnt even noticeable in terms of looks. And also less work to fit the +29. 19x9 +29 all around with 245s !!! I cannot waitttttt !!!!

Get the plus 29 and then spacers if you want more. I might take some more pictures.

Nah it's the same as when you saw it. I'm sure it'll rub on that damn tab. I need to go on a tool run anyways so I'll get a file or dremel.

sounds like the plan. Also because ive been doing a bit of reading on hellaflush set ups and it seems having a car slammed to the ground and stretched tires isnt very functional in terms of performance or on the track. I think +29 would be best to give a the best of both worlds.. looks and performance

Yea hellaflush isn't the best setup for grip lol. Ended up going 9.5 +23 in the back and +28 up front. I'll wash my car again soon and take a couple pictures

I tried searching but couldn't find the answer to this:

Would 285 / 30 / 18 tires on stock rims fit alright without me having to roll my fender? And if I have to roll... how much?

I wouldn't reccomend that... that would have an extremely soft sidewall and greater chance of the tire failing.

Yes I'm autocrossing... and I already have the tires just haven't mounted them so I'm not really looking for a recommendation on size but want to find out if I need to buy a fender roller.

Pretty sure it's been done and it didn't need the fenders rolled. Best to ask someone in the racing section just to make sure.

Definitely -2.0+ maybe more if you have partially rolled fenders. Roll them flat and you wont have to add any unnecessary camber.
