How much work would be needed to run these on the rear of an s15 stock arches, wanting to know what sort of camber would need to be ran.

Thanks in advance!

Lots, widebody guards yes, not stock. Even with aggressive rolling at best you will only get a 18X10X+21 with a stretched tyre.

Just had a look now, did the rolling yourself? What wheels specs are you running couldn't see it in the build thread or did I miss it?

Also pm'd James as I noticed he now has mittos old car running negative offsets with stock arches with what looks like decent camber, he says he has spacers too but I don't know weather he's included that in the offset calculations or that's on top of the wheel offsets.

When i was talking to James at jap fest he said the rear arch's were cut pulled out and blended?

So I'd probably be looking at similar, and seeing as I'm not a fan of wide body kits and don't plan to get the car sprayed any time soon this sounds like too much work. Thanks anyway. Think I'll stick with my weak offsets for a bit longer!

This is mine with 18x10 et -20 w/ 235/40, that takes into account the 15mm spacer. The whole rear arch was pulled wider in Japan. Then ive had gone even wider.

The rear is now wider than a Vertex Ridge fender. Same was done with the fronts, stock metal front wings which are now much wider with 18x9.5 et -5 w/ 225/40 straight side wall semi slicks.

The front and rear stock bumpers are so stretched they dont fit properly haha. Not many people (even S15 owners) seem to really notice actually how wide the car is.





:p
