New wheels do look good!
I'm a little impartial to Fin style wheels though.

Anyone hear running 18x8 +45

I'm concerned my track rims are going to hit the guards

I'm running -2.2 degrees camber on front and -2.5 on rear

Been trying to reply for a couple of days

So the above combo definitely fit. Cleared brembos by over 10mm.

18x8 +45

-2.7 degrees camber on rear
-2.2 on front

Shits it in. I'd say even 1.5 degrees will clear

Yep I'm running these specs on the car.... 18x8 +45 with 225/40/18

Rears at -1.3, no scrubbing.
Front's at -1...slight scrubbing on VERY hard corners. Front guards not rolled.

I'm getting 18 x 8 +48 / 225x40x18 on my car this week, What would my camber settings be?
Would I need to roll gaurds?

Cheers!

I've got those spec wheels with 235/40/R18s on STi pink springs. Very slight scrubbing on the rear if I push the car then hit a decent bump mid corner but that's happened like twice. No camber adjustment at the rear and the fronts are set to -1.5 degrees. Fronts are fine for clearance so far

Hmmm Interesting Cheers, I'll yet to put my Swift springs on but they are lower then the STI springs.
How much are camber adjustments for the rear's? or just get the rears rolled? $90

You should be fine with the narrower tyres, I'm very picky about my car and it's minor enough for me not to care about it. But 235/40/18 +48 would definitely be the limit without touching the guards or adjustments. Your car will sit lower stationary but bottoming out is still bottoming out regardless of the springs, the only difference will be how often you do it

I don't think there is any adjustment at the rear, but camber bolts are a cheap option too

Cheers, thanks for that write up
I'll see how we go once I get them on and aligned at heasman steering.

It's either http://www.whiteline.com.au/product_det ... ber=KCA399
for about $110 + Installation or rears rolled at $40-45 a corner.

Hmmmmm I'll ask them to see whats the better option when fitted.

Is it possible to fit Rota Grid R's 18x8.5 on a 2005 Subaru Liberty without guard rolling.

Depends how low your going and offset, If stock height Probably!

Finally had a nice sunny day in Perth so i managed to get a couple more pics of the new wheels also, since the first pics i took, i ve lowered the rear end approx 10mm more and removed the centre caps as they just looked too bulky and ruined the nice concave look of the wheel. Im hoping to replace them with Subaru ones or something else that sit more flush, is this possible ? Are centre caps a universal type fit providing i get the correct size? Cheers
