Welcome to CL, as mentioned above there is a lot of good information on this site to get you going in the right direction. Good luck with your car. Be sure to get all the maintenance done first if you do not know thwe service history of your car.

A common setup is -4 camber with +20 offset all around (width of the wheels matters too). You should take a look at TyreStretch for stretched tire examples and WillTheyFit for a good visual on a specific setup. Make sure you roll or shave your fenders too (I don't know why people try to avoid that, just eliminates potential problems).

I'm sure a lot of people will just tell you to look at the Wheel Fitment thread, but I didn't get much help there when I was figuring out my setup. It's mostly trial and error with stance, but having a good idea of what will fit will reduce those trials. Good luck with figuring out your setup

Here are my specs for your reference:

19x10 +26 (Mid Disk)
225/35/19

19x11 +26 (Mid Disk)
245/35/19

Fenders had been rolled and pulled another 5mm in the rear.
My front driver fender has been bent before, so the fitment isn't even. I was planning on running a spacer in the front anyway though.

Wow your car looks amazing! I see Chrispy's LS in the background too.

wow car does look amazing! love the stance but is there an offset I can use without having to camber the car. I had that type of setup on my 95 Honda EG with a -8 camber it was sick but it came with a lot of problems that I would like to try to avoid this time around.

also I noticed that a lot of ppl are going with the 19x11 +25-27 is that the best fitment for an SC. I plan on buying a wide-body kit this weekend will that change the offset that I will want to go with ? if so what do I go with and will I have to cut the original fenders to get them out of the way?
