Generally useless trash excuses for human beings. Stanced vehicles are pants-on-head retarded and their owners tend to be the dumbest of all the rocks in the box. Often times these wheels will cost 2X (used market) as the wheels above because of the demand even though the only difference is maybe an 1-2" width. Having that extra barrel lip is a big deal for people into this trend. Slightly wider but with a negative offset. Here is similar sized (height) wheels with a different offset/width. Running a narrow tire makes the tire sidewall slant inwards and gives you even more room to fit a wider rim under the fenders. That's also why the tend to run "stretched" tires with a narrow tire on a wider rim (example.205/40 on a 16x9" wheel). People that run these extreme camber setups are trying to fit the widest lipped wheel under their fender. On most modern wheels on FWD cars, the central hub portion is almost flat with the edge of the wheel (considered a positive offset.often listed as a +35 or +45). If you look at an old school muscle car wheel, they will have large lip and the center hub portions sits further inside the wheel. These wheels tend to be negative offset designs. I've always liked the look of a lowered vehicle, but that extreme negative camber is just stupid looking.Yeah, it's definitely a look.Ī lot of these cars are trying to run wheels with a large lip face (often referred to as the "barrel"). I was told the extreme negative camber wasn't just a side effect from being lowered but that it is the look they are going for. I'll admit I know nothing about the suspension under those little import cars. Your friend's truck has solid axles where all of the cars shown here have independent suspension.Yeah, I guess I'm comparing apples to oranges. I have a friend that has a Chevy C10 with Porterbuilt dropmembers front and rear and air bags, he can tuck 24" wheels and barely has any negative camber when the truck is aired all the way down.How the lowered wheels react depend on the suspension design of the car/truck. I don't get all that negative camber crap. It might look stupid but there is a lot of factors you have to take into account to make it work.
A 205/45 will likely rub but a 195/50 will fit perfectly. But if you stick the same 15x7 wheel with a 0 or neutral offset, the wheel is going to stick out another 35mm past the fender and you WILL have fender rubbing issues if you try to lower the car. A 90's era Civic with 15x7 wheels and +35 offset (and the correct profile tires) will have the wheels flush with the fender. This happens when owners buy wheels that are made for rear wheel drive cars that require a lower or negative offset. That's why you see so many shitty Civics with wheels sticking out past the fenders. Having the correct wheel offset is key though. Sometimes they'll pull the fenders out a little so it gives the top of the fender a bit of a bulge for just a 1/2" of extra room. Usually the inner lip on the fender is completely cut out or at just folded up flat. You need the perfect combination of ride height, wheel width (and most important, the correct wheel offset) and tire profile. Getting that perfect wheel tuck is kind of a science. On most suspension designs when the springs compress, the wheels actually move up/inwards. View QuoteMost are on adjustable air bag suspension or just straight up coilovers with an adjustable collar.
