    run a normal offset so you can fit normal tires.

    Everyone is making this way too complicated. I advise on getting stiffer springs. H&R race works like a charm.

    A local buddy runs H&R race with 16x9 et0 BBS RS and doesn't have any rubbing issues after the fenders are rolled. Also, if you feel inside the fender approximately at the zenith, there is a bump that juts out. That could be rubbing, and if so it needs to be hammered in.

    And in case everyone hasn't realized this, the OP's tires are already undersized.

    Just get better suspension components like the previous poster suggested. Get some stiff sway bars and you wont be rubbing on "hard cornering". Problem solved.

    Adding that much negative camber to your rear wheels sounds like it will rapidly increase tire wear on the insides of your tires, and might actually make you have less grip in the corners, and a lot less on the straights.

    Like i said a moment ago, i would just go with fender flares, and if your wheel wells simply are not big for that wheel set up, then i might be time to look at some major modification to your wheels wells.
    Yeah but if he was actually trying to make his car perform better he wouldn't be stretching 195 or 205 tires on his wheels.

I want to square the car out, and have 195's in the rear as well, cuz the car is on the stock motor, and having a 205 on the rear will just slow it down...
