10-12mm is more than I expected with 1 degree of camber. If that's true it would be pretty easy to fit 9.5et22 without poking.
Yes i went out and tested it. 10mm thick piece didn't fit between my wheel and shock. Well it kinda fits but it was tight. 9mm thick piece went to that gap without problems, but had very little room to move like less than 1mm. So i determined that there is maximum of 9mm gap, of course it's not 100% accurate, so some tolerance would be good to take account.

This is what member #Tee said to me when i asked it some time ago. I don't really have idea about that. Direct quote of what he said back then,

Just keep in mind each degree of camber will pull the rim in 10-12mm
I'm not going to question The guy who knows pretty much everything about fitment. I tried to use that tagging system, so #Tee would notice and could verify, but it doesn't seem to work or i did something wrong.
