With the buddy's it isn't rubbing with 2 deg negative camber. Can you help me if someone have or know about this. :roll:

tire size
ride height
rolled fenders

But yes a 16x8 +38 could work if the other things above are just right.

Also if you're doing it for performance/traction purposes, stick with a 15" rim for better tire choices and a 15" tire will also have less chance of rubbing than a 16" tire.
