looks SICK if you could correct the camber just a bit so you dont wear out the inner part of your tire it would be great. you also don't wanna correct it 2 much or you will rub the quater panels

Berti- I gotta say...alright, I didn't know what you were talking about in the first place 
but your stretch looks great!
Some of these look all show, no go...yours looks like a driver.
Got some side view shots?

lots of cars
All i can say is that those tires are gonna last 6 months before the wires start to show on the inner sidewall. 9s fit and 9.5" is 10.5" from lip to lip wide so you need to either have a wheel with the correct offset or it won't fit. The camber in the back is what's gonna make your tires wear out fast! I don't go with 225 in the rear because i had a new set of falkens wear out in 6 months after i put them on. More offset and wider tires can stop wear on the inside that's why i'm going with 18x9 40mm offset 255/35/18 rear and 18x8 35mm offset 225/40/18 fronts...

Well, I need to find the other two wheels first. I have a set of 18x9 lorinser rs-1 wheels for the rear with a 44 offset and i have h&r 5mm spacers, i just need to find the 18x8s for the front. I'm going to grind off the inner lip and hammer the inner fender to make them fit so it's not a bolt on. I'll post pictures soon. I also have some 18" chrome amg monoblocks and a set of dronells wx-5 wheels but those are 18x8 which i'm probably gonna sell. I got offered a cabrio so i need to get some money and maybe i'll be ridin on that...

Negative
camber is more a result of the lowering of the car then it is the ET of the rim.Lower it an inch and you go down to -1.5 from street ideal -.5degrees.
2-3 in drop you need rear camber links or the insides of the tires will wear out in under a year.
Fit the rims and tires you want,lower the car,check for interference and then go get it aligned.On the dealers machine unless you shop is using the hunter unit.
