Fender rolling and pulling and lots of negative camber. You could have looked that one up.

My buddy's got 16's same offset and 205's. He's just on lowering springs, no camber kit either. Only thing he's done is rolled his fenders with a bat..lol so yea, you should be good.

how much of a roll? I am trying to avoid popping out the qtr panels. A buddy of mine just suggested rolling the fender lip up and it should clear.

This is 15x8 +20 with rolled lips and slightly pulled. Not sure on the figment in rear since these rims are for my slicks which are 8.5/23-15

first nice to see a fellow vue brother in here, second to answer your question a little research does go along way, but yeah i understand your point of view and i don't blame you when it come to searching there are so many combination and way to do it so it get confusing. It all go down to how you want your car and your tire to look really. I'm going to take a wild guess here that you want the flush look "obviously because it 15x8", and for this fender rolling, a good suspension since you mention civic function and form type 1 i would suggest best pricing and it get the job done, chamber kit any brand would do depend on your taste of quality and budget, tire size depend entirely on you on how much you want to stretch your tire. I'm currently running on some 16x8 offset 20 right now on my ej you can look on my current thread right now to get an idea for yourself.

Thanks for the information and suggests. Greatly appreciate it!

As for my set up, I currently got koni yellow with skunk2 coilovers. Plan to get gc custom rates and extended top hats. Camber, will I just got skunk2 pro fronts nothing in the rear right now. I do plan to get rear camber kits, which will be skunk2 pro rear cambers.

Yeah I do want that flush look. I am looking at some 15x8 +20 and plan to wrapp 195/50 or 195/45 on them, so I can lip out a little. So far from what I have been awhile to research and gather to make it work out for me with little fender roll, I would need to roll my fender lips up and do -2 front and -4 rear camber.

I have an eg6 and bought the same set of rims. I wasnt too sure on what size tires I should go with either. I am thinking 195/50 like the yours, however, I wanted to know how many inches your car is lowered. Mine is lowered 2 inches in the front and 2.5 in the back, so I wanted to assure that there wouldn't be a problem considering how low it is.
