And yeah I'm running BC BR Coils.

Do I really need camber at the rears? Cause I dont wanna put in extra money for rear camber arms if I dont really need to.

Depends on how low you want and tyre size I'm sure Victor can give his input here.

Well im not really running low... Im more of a track spec so my car is up at a good height so I dont scrub my lip when going over bumps. What would be the best tyre size for 17x8 at the rears with natural camber?

Im not too experience with track set up but for a 8 inch wheel, i would go for 225/45.

Depending on your height, you may clear it without camber arms because i had 215/45 on 17*9+22 on the rears at one stage. This was on Tein springs and natural camber.

Looking for a set of rims for my FD civic, would i have any problems with 18x8.5 +40 ?

No problems at call,
Just use tyres 225/40 if you do plan to lower the car

Anyone tried
17x10+18
17x9+22
215/40 all around. Maybe 225 on the 10" depends if the stretch is too much
On a FD2? No guard modifications., No Camber Arms & On Coilovers. Cars slammed atm.

Will it be too aggressive?

9" will fit if cambered
Or it'll poke

Pm Jamie as she ran 10"

How much negative camber for 17x9 +22 should we run in order not to worry much about tire wear?

Depends on cars height... I have -2 degrees natural camber. Takes about 6 months to wear out my tyres.
Make sure you reset your toe. Toe causes tyres to wear really fast.

I would say. Make them straight as possible.

This is 8 months of Camber+Toe wear lol
Both sides looked like that.

Has anyone ever run 17x8.5 +30 on the rear of their EP3 with 215/45/17? Any issues on stock suspension?

Shouldn't be any issues. A few mates of mine run 17x8.5 +31's all round with 225/45's and I think the other runs 215/45's. Only very slight rubbing under load in the rear on the 225/45 setup, on non rolled guards.
