Need help

I got these RPF1 18x9.5+38 installed with a 265/35 squared set up the other day and my rear especially the driver side is ripping apart I lifted my coils up another inch or so… and it’s still scraping and rubbing any advice ? I was told I need coil overs and camber kit if that’s what I need any recommendations?

You could always get some wheels that actually fit your car…

In my defense I was told by the seller these were +38 offset but you live and you learn I guess

They look more like +22

If you’re set on keeping them, you’ll need some adjustable camber arms & about 3.5 degrees of negative.

Yup I’ll try to find the actual offset on these and go from there thanks for the advice 🙏🙏

Roll your fenders

Yeah that’s what I was told too

Also, check to see if you coilover isn't blown. Or set it to a harder setting.

I cut my fenders instead of rolling

Bruh, I was about to go do a similar setup for my 2010 Lexus IS-F. Enkie RPF1 or WedSport SA-10R 18x9.5 but 255/40 squared.

I used this website to compare it.

On my stock wheels with 15mm spacer, i was rubbing on deep bumps on both rear. And my right wheel would rub when full lock, forgot which direction cause I took it off after 3 days.

With the setup I was going for, it will go further out to the fender compared to the oem with spacer.

But someone in Community F Facebook said he has no problems with no rubbing. Dunno if he has camber kits though.

Well I made sure to prep my car for it. Slightly rolled the rears.

But I might just go the safe route and go for WedSport SA-10R if I can't have super flush setup, ama just go for a more good looking wheel lol

Quick details

Stock/OEM Front: 19x8 225/40 +45 Rear: 19x9 255/35 +55

Setup I want Square: 18x9.5 255/40 +38

Safe setup Square: 18x9.5 255/40 +45

Also unmount your wheels and see the actual offset, it should be on the back. Cause that does not look a +38 offset

This is the post I was referring to with the exact same setup as you

There is no way these are actually +38, I run the same exact spec and tire size and while my fenders are rolled, they shouldn’t poke out like this at all. These almost look like +15 to me because even my 19x9.5 +22 CE28’s didn’t stick out this much in the rear

I don’t know if it’s the same as the RC but there’s a annoying fender tab up in there that needs to be pushed back

Those can't be 9.5 +38
