Need help with wheel fitment: 17x9.5" +15 offset MB Battles - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Hey guys, I have a 91 LE Hatch with D2 coilovers, Courtesy Nissan RUCAs and Megan rear toe links. I just got some 17x9.5" Battles +15 offset all around, and am running a 225/45/17 Yokohama S-Drive tire. I know I probably should have tried to find a 40 sidewall, but got a great deal on the S-Drives. Either way, my rear fenders are rolled and SLIGHTLY pulled, my fronts are rolled.

I am having rubbing issues, and have tried to max out my front camber plates and they still stick out a lot. My rears I know SHOULD clear if I camber them in to maybe -1.5 degree camber, right now they are at -.6 probably. (OE SPEC)

I have seen some people make these look flush, and am wondering what do I need to do to achieve this. Id like to not pull the rears anymore, in fear of caving in the qtr panel. The rears already have been hit up with a fender roller once, but like I said, a small pull is present. I am assuming if I camber the rear, I can lower it more and tuck, but I have no idea how to tuck the fronts. Here are the pictures, these are with the front camber plates maxxed out.

Thanks for the help
