Has anyone ran into any problems with this offset?
I looked through the forums to the best of my ability and couldn't find anything specific to this. I recently purchased Ferrada FR8-FR7. The front wheels are 20x10 +25 offset and the rear are 20x11 +30 offset. And just to plug this in their my front wheels are 285/35/20 which I am downsizing to 285/30/20 because its WAY to close to the bottom of the MRC bottom plate. My rear tires are 315/30/20 which fit perfect after moving the wire on the driver side.
But if you look at the pictures below my question is will I run into trouble with the rear wheels sticking out past the fenders. I will be installing Eibach .7 front and rear lowering springs soon. From what I have found on this forum it looks like everybody keeps the wheels and tires square with the fenders. Does the 6th Gen Camaro squat that much as to where I will run into issues with my wheels and tires sticking out so far? |

YES with the camber adjustments I mentioned, you should be good to go.

For me I run -2.0 degrees negative camber on the REAR of the car (my car maxes out at about -2.6 degrees on rear) and -2.2 degrees camber on the FRONT of the car for my normal street setting. This makes the car handling neutral (no under or oversteer to speak of). I run MS 4S tires on car and that tire even with a 300 TW rating handles VERY well and is great in inclement weather as well.

Are you tracking or autocrossing the car? Because if you aren't, then -2-deg rear camber is quite a lot. Stock 1LE rear wheels are 11" with 43mm offset and only 305/30 tires. With your proposed setup, your 11" rear wheels will sit 13mm (1/2") further outboard and you'll have 10mm more tire width (5mm extra on the outboard side). So your rear tires will sit about 3/4" further out than those of a stock SS 1LE. I don't think your tires are going to rub the fender edges, but they will poke out a bit. Whether that matters to you is more a matter of aesthetics than function, I think.
Solving that "poke" by increasing negative camber is not the proper solution: you should set your alignment the way you need it for best handling and tire life according to the ways you intend to use the car, not to address appearance issues.
