Phi, what widths and offsets did you order ? Sounds like you're going off the charts, brother ! neg camber and stretched, you will be poking !

Doing my calcualtions I ordered 18x9 +25 and 18x10 +20 rear. The +25 infront will be 1mm out further then what have now and will have 11mm less inside so I still have clearance of the calipers. The +20 rear will extended 11mm further than what I have now and 1mm less on the inside. So definitely going to be poking lol.
