Are you running a rear camber kit?

no you dont. that natural camber with toe set to neutral. the lower you go the more camber you gain. no real need for camber kits until 19x10.5+20 and lower offsets.

no 17x7.5+25 will not hit your fenders.

Ok picked up the wheels today. 19x9.5 up front +12 and 19x10.5 back +22

To confirm I can order 225/35 for the front as long as I console work with the fender tabs etc. can I do 265/30 out back with a nice roll and no pull? Do I need the Megan camber kit?

19x9 +35
19x10 +35

It will fit I know, but tire sizes? They told me 235/35 and 255/35. Is there a better tire size?

no, not without a light roll. as far as tire size recs, it's already been addressed.

and unless you're already stretching the heck out of your tires and still not clearing the fenders, you don't need the megan camber kit for more camber.

if you don't want to stretch narrower tires on wider wheels to get them to clear, you shouldn't have gotten wheels w/ said offsets in the first place. just saying.

try 265/30-19. slightly wider but shorter sidewalls.

you're going to have issues w/ 235/55-17's.

sidewalls are ~1" taller up front and ~3/4" taller in the rear.

.
already purchased it. 225/35 and 265/30. They look pretty decent on the wheel. It's not as big of a fail as I thought it would be stretch wise. Now I just need to make them work on the car. Few more days.

should have went with a 215/35 up front. 9.5+12 isnt gunna be a walk in the park to fit. your going to need about a 12mm pull up front. and fully remove the bumper tab. also say goodbye to your fender liners.

^ i'm sure they'll fit. it's just a matter of how much more work that will be required to get them to fit...

19x10 +25 is a lovely fitment. Throw some 235/35's on the wheel and you should be good to go, although a fender roll is advised.
