im looking into some 15x8 xxr 002's and i was wondering if ill need to do anything. like rolling fenders etc. ive been reading about all these low offsets and it seems like the only way to make them fit is to have negative camber and rolled fenders? is this true? and what size tires will i need? i like the stretched tire look but i dont really want to do it. i'm not lowered currently but soon i'll be getting dropzone shocks/coilovers. going down probably 2.5". btw its a 95 del sol that these would be going on. thanks for the help....

 

camber kit

 

I have 16x7 with 37 offset and those rubbed in the rear really bad. I rolled them with a heat gun and wooden baseball bat and everything fits perfect now.

 

lift it and do some positive camber and it wont rub

 

are you serious?you shouldn'treply unless your trying to help some one.if you know nothing about the post just move on

 

you are going to need a camber kit, some 195/50 tires, and minor fender rolling.

 

i got the same wheels, you going to need camber kit front and back and set it to negative camber. just set it till the tires not rub on the finders or you can have some rubbing because i do.
like ek9!der said 195/50 tires

 

alright thanks everybody... i changed my mind on the rims though instead of the 002's im choosing the 501's. but they'll still be 15x8's.

 

What you will need is to say what offset your going to be running. You cannot be given information for help when you haven't even stated an offset.

Also, forget about the dropzone combo. Dropzone is complete garbage, save a bit and buy something that will last.

 

oh woops i meant to put that in there... with the sportmaxx 501's they'd be +15.

 

Eh +15 is pretty low. Youll need to roll and maybe pull fenders depending on the camber. Never stretch tires. Maybe if its a show only car thats not driven.

 

so i read up on these 'function and form' coilovers. what are youre opinions on them? worth the money or not? from what i've seen they dont have the Type Two for del sol's.

 

I guess theyre ok for a daily, but not great for track use.

 

yeah thats all it is, a daily.

 

check out my "diamond racing steelies" thread to see my 15x8 et15. i'm running 195/45/15 tires, rolled fenders and no camber kit. i only rub a little on tight turns

 

have 15x8s with same offset on my ek with type 1 function and forms and i had to do lots of negative camber along with rolling my fenders...i have the coilovers maxed tho
