Icon3 negative offset deep dish wheels on ef sedan??

hey i got a set of old school super deep dish wheels recently with a bolt pattern of 4x100. They are 13's and have a good 4 inches of lip. The tires are 175/50/13 so theyre low pros. I put one on my ef sedan that i just got too see how it looked and they poked out a good 2 inches from the side of the car. The offset is negative not sure exactly how much tho. My question is would it be fine to camber them out for that flush look? Or could it be harmful to my axles or suspension? Im planning on replacing the tires with 60 series and either rolling my fenders or possible getting some flares if it doesnt look ghetto.

1. We don't know the type of car this is referring to.
2. We don't know the size of the wheels you are trying to run.

Please be more thorough when requesting technical help here.

the car im trying to mount them on is a 89 dx ef sedan. The wheels are 13's and they have a negative offset so they poke out of the fenders by about 2-3 inches. I dont know the width or offset sorry, the lip is almost big enough to cover up a soda can. They stick out of the car, theyre not wide enough to rub on the inside of the wheel well though.

Well, the size of the wheel is critical in giving proper information. Without knowing it, its impossible to really give credible responses.

If you're just looking for information regarding a lot of negative camber, just to fit these wheels... this really isn't the place for it. This forum is more for configurations that are safe and functional.

Measure the width, and measure the backspacing so you can derive the offset, then come back here afterward, when you have useful information to provide. Certainly you have a tape measure, so go use it.

With what has been posted, this is the mental picture you've painted for us as to what you want to do:
