Maybe you should go 0 camber Akinari, tires will have camber wear for no good reason unless you are trying to make clearance to tuck tire or something. Just a suggestion though !

Are you rubbing at 4 fingers?

@akinari I assume you needed adapters to make those wheels fit?
My 20" GTRs are going to be for sale in about a month. (9.5 front, 10.5 rear). Offsets are aggresive given they came off a 2010 GTR. Nonetheless if they line up with your car I think they would look pretty sick...

All I can say is they will be wide, I am already checking how wide the hankooks I like go, as long as they keep making them in 335's I think I'll be okay... |

A 335 for an FX is going to be NUTS...
You do realize you'll want ATLEAST an 12" wide wheel for that right haha?

unless half the tire is off the ground there shouldnt be much
i ran -3 in the rear for 2 years with no uneven wear..a

If all goes well it should be 22x10ish up front and 22x12 rear.
I don't want to go too wide up front because of hydroplaning, and the fact that the steering is so fucking heavy already.
