What Camber with 205's?

[M.C..]

I have some 15 inch pro race 1.2 et43 with 205/50/15 Federal RSR's, I am keeping standard cup shocks but putting cooksport springs on.

ATM with standard springs I have between 12-15mm (measured with a fat finger lol) between the tyre and the strut.
I am looking to run around 2.25deg of negative camber which if I have calculated it right should push the top of the wheel in about 3-4mm(if the standard 182 is running 1.5deg(1deg 30mins).

I would rather not run spacers but if I have to I would run some 16mm hubcentric and just use a stud conversion kit straight into the hub just longer (as I don't like bolting to 16mm of ally)
What is the standard clearance with 205/45/16 tyres on a 182 (never checked before swopping wheels)

What clearance have you got with what tyres and camber?

Thanks

Standard front camber is approx 40 mins, are you confusing spec with the rear?

I think you will be fine. I run 1deg 30mins camber (eibach bolts on 182 cup struts) with 205/45 r16 federal rs-R tyres on standard 182 cup (ET45) wheels. I have about 10mm clearence at standard ride height.

You've gained 2mm With ET 43 but if it did end up fouling when lowered then I think a 3mm spacer would be all you'd need.

Thanks Kev, I was getting mixed up with the rear
