with in a few months im going to b buyin new 18s but with 215/40 tires. i need the 40 side wall because i really dont want to bend the rims with all the crappy roads around here. the problem is that right now im pretty low on neuspeed race springs on 17s with 215/40 tires. i really think that i can fit the 18s but i know theres goin to be lots of rubbing with an extra inch of rim in the wheel well. so im askin should i jus make my camber more negative so i can tuck the rims for a lil bit until i save up for teins? and wut about offset , wut offset should i use for the least rubbing?
THANX.

Just roll your fenders and you'll be fine. My rims have a 42 mm offset, and my fenders just need to be rolled a little bit.
But you'll definately have to roll them on Neuspeed Race springs.
Good choice with the 40 series.

Rolling Fenders
Basically in the rear you gotta bend the LIttle Lip in your fender well up so that it won't rub in the back look at the link!!

wow..that's a pretty good DIY for rolling the fenders. i actually shaved mine off at a body shop. they did a horrible job cuz all the paint is chipped under the fender lip, but my tires fit now, haha.
