anyone running decent angle with negative offset fronts? im building my wheels and considering running 17x9 -6 or -18 for the fronts of my skyline. so clearance on the barrel side should be no issue, but im wondering about the tire rubbing the rear of the fender and the front bumper.


my s14 had wisefab and 18x9 +20 and it worked great, so im a bit nervous about the negative offset.



thanks.

I tried 17x9 -15 with 235/40 on the front of S13 with an angle kit and stock caster, and it rubbed the skirt, fender, and rear of the wheel well really badly. No way I could run that size.

yeah, I think ill just put the aero on and the wheel at stock sizes and do a bunch of measurements. cant have it hitting the side skirt, that's not easy to fix.
