                  just to make sure i am doing my math right if i go 1.5 inch lip that would put me at 16x8 +37? 2 inch lip would be 16x8.5 +24? both can be done on our car with a little camber right? post up pics if your running close to these set ups. thanks

                    The 16x8.5 +24 would be best if you want the low offset camber look....I am running 16x8 +15 on my Wagon

                        Tire size is 205/45...would be a nice stretch on 8.5 wheels and not sure on the camber degree. The front is uncorrected just natural camber and the rears I have SPC arms but haven't gone for the alignment yet. The rear won't need allot of camber, just rolling the inside of the wheel well will give you allot of space.

                              16x8.5 or 16x8 would look sick either way.

                              but just a little fyi, with the 16x8.5 (2" lip) you would be at +29 or +30 offset, not +24.
