what?????

do you mean a 17x9 +20 offset?

if so you need NO camber they fit fine with stock camber measurements

its either (cant remember right now) +12 or +20 offset on a 17x9 with a 5mm spacer in between. would this need too much camber to be to tucked in (just a lil bit)? will it run in the inside? those are the only questions... thankes everyone

a 17x9 +12 with a 5mm spacer (effectively a +7) will require a roll and pull, a 17x9 +20 with a 5mm spacer (+15) will only need a roll, either way they both should fit understock fenders with some modifications, and pretty neutral camber

just FYI, i run -2 degrees on the front on my DD, and as long as your toe is in your tires will last a pretty good while

So what offset do you think it'd be best to fit with stockish fenders and no spacer?

thanks for the info ashibah.

Anywhere from +20 to +15 is generally a good offset target to get flush with no spacers.
