I would personally take some camber out. If you want the cambered look then get some 5-10mm spacers and you'll be set.


It looks really nice. One of my friends was going to order some wheels in that size for his 08 SI so I am curious to know of he went through with it. He was a little nervous about them fitting (we test fit my 17X9 +18 rega on his car, haha).

Thanks everyone for the compliments/suggestions. What I plan on doing is disconnecting the shock/spring, that way I can move the rim all the way up and see how much I can camber it out without the rim hitting the fenders. Cause right now it's pretty close. Lowering it more isnt really a good option for me, I work at ODU 5 days a week, and the drive there sucks. And I still have the hatch, I just havnt driven it in like 3 months.

Since lowering isn't an option I am with Stephen. Give it a tad more poitive camber and call it a day.
