to an your first question, the 16x8 +25 will give you LESS problems.

camber and fender rolling depending on ride height, suspension settings, and tire size. Any change in any one of those, changes everything. So don't expect an easy answer or to easily solve your questions. The easiest way you can go about this, is to SEARCH other people's cars that have the same or similar wheel size and go from there.

Feel you on that, Im also looking at purchasing teins street basis coilovers so that answer is very helpful. I am the type to do mad research. I know I will find the correct fitment and combination after putting the hours into the methodical approach. Thanks for your time and insight

I had 16x8 x25 xxrs on my hatch, I have progress coilovers and no camber kits. I was running 195-50 Falken ziex and u had to roll my fenders pretty hard to get tire tucked but after awhile of using a bat and a hair drier I got it rolled enough lol. I had about a fingers gap for along time

I did roll my fenders..

I have those same wheel specs using a 205/40. Then again, im not stanced, slammed, stretched or poked. I have a 1 finger gap and its perfect for me.

But also, i take in consideration that i like to drive my car and not have to slow down for things

Nice that hatch looks good. I like a little less tire though than a 50. Was thinking of going 205/40/16 (if possible, if not then 205/45/16) But I'm thinkin im gonna need to roll my fenders then. Thank you for the advice man!

Strech tires n hell of camber ...yes ..rolled quarter pannels
Ok sweet, I see. Camber though, not a huge fan of the noticeable camber adjustment on a daily driver. But a little is okay, if I have to do a lot of negative camber adjusting I would probably just get a different set of wheels. I still have to try and be practical :( thanks for the tips!

This is the type of fitment I want. Something practical that I can drive on every day. Not the stance, hellaflush thing. maybe on a show car but not on my daily. I see you drive an EJ8 as well, really appreciate your answer here. I'll probably end up getting my fenders rolled. Have seen lots of your other posts and you seem to really know what you're talking about. Thanks for taking the time to answer my question. Do you have any tips for tire brand? glad to hear that stretching wasn't necessary
