What's the width of the wheels? Is it a +6 or -6 offset?

The width is crucial since the "offset" measurement is from the CENTER of the wheel. Without knowing the width, the offset measurement means nothing.

Are you just running them for the track? If so, why should it matter if they clear? Run a much wider tire then a 205 on the wheels, and get a better footprint.

Also, running negative camber on a drag setup? Why? For Drag cars, 0 degrees of camber is the most ideal setup. You don't want to limit your contact patch at all.

this is my daily driven car its a street car, and no im not saying i want to run camber kits but some wheels you have to run camber kits to fit the wheel and usually they dont make drag radials for 13s that are bigger then 205 but if i find some I will get 225 anyways my original question... Will I be able to run drag rims that are 13x8 +6 offset on stock brakes on my ef with rolled fenders but no camber kits or spacers??? Only running the front 2 wheels

I am confused as to why you would run drag radials on a daily driven street car. That's a horrible waste of money, since drag radials do not have a long treadlife at all.

Seeing as though I have no idea what design of wheel this is, I cannot give an honest answer as to whether or not they'll clear your brakes. They MAY clear, they may not. Furthermore, they won't clear your fenders unless its an aggressive fender roll.
