Hi guys,
I've been shopping for some wheels. A friend of mine allowed me to test fit his work wheels. He has a 2IS on air and fitment is perfect. The wheel specs are 19x9 +32 225 35 19 (front) 19x10 +36 on 245 35 19 (rear).
Fronts fit great. My concern is the rear fenders. Ive attached photos for reference. Keep in mind I am also on air suspension and I'd like to air out and ride low without damaging anything.
My question is, would installing rear camber arms help with fitment? Or do I need to do fender work? Sorry for the noob questions any feedback is appreciated. Thanks. Fronts look good!
Looks pretty good.
The rear will be close...if it was a +40 you might have been good to go without camber arms.
Having said that, even if it doesn't clear as is, the camber arms will likely get you the tuck you need.

Got it, thanks again. I will most likely pull the trigger on these. Any recommendations on camber arms? Only ones I could find are the SPC ones.
yeah if you had a +40 on a x10 wheel in the rear you would've cleared that setup easily.
There's also Figs Engineering Rear Camber arms.
And if you got lots of money, T-demand full rear arms setup. (the shop you had your bags installed at is a t-demand dealer)
Also another quick question. Did you ever get alignment done after?
If your alignment is toe-In in the rear that will throw the wheel to touch the bumper more. If you tow back out to within spec for a lowered car that might be enough to have to clear bumper.
Just throwing this out there for one other thing to try if you havent done so already.
The car toes in like crazy when it Air out due to the way the rear suspension design. The more it compresses the more toe in it will exhibit.

No, I haven't done an alignment yet though it is on my to do list. I may try that and see if it helps. I inquired about t-demand and wow it is a crazy expensive. I'm on the fence about the wheels as of now, I might just get wheels that fit.
