Missed that bit, thanks for pointing it out!

+22 is the 'safer' choice in regards to the fender fitment, +12 is more aggressive. Since you want to run 245's all around I would try for the +22's, you will have an easier time getting the tires inside the fenders that way.
However, +22 might not clear your brakes. Rotor offset it what matters in this case. EVO rotors are fairly low offset, meaning the calipers/rotors will be closer to the spokes. Offsets to compare:
S13 stock: 29.2mm
GTR brembo: 23.75mm
350z brembo: 19mm
EVO brembo: 11.5mm
How the inside of the spokes are designed also has a big impact, however Rays are generally know to have good clearance.
Honestly, it's a bit of a toss up. +22 may require a small spacer to clear the brakes, +12 likely won't. +12 will need more camber/rolling, +22 won't. If I were you, I'd go +22, hope for the best, and toss on a spacer if it doesn't fit.
Good luck.
EDIT: These are 18x9.5 +22 DR57's on an evo... spokes look extremely close to me, and I have no idea if he's running a spacer. Of course the diameter and width are different, but still. |
Bought a fender roller and heat gun, probably going to end up with +12 and try my hand at destroying my fenders. Have to wait until the rest of my brake parts come in anyways so Feb will be wheels/tires in the mail and everything going in, should give me time to roll fenders.
Ended up with 2 sets of rear calipers as well so dual caliper setup whaaa....
