You would have to do some work to make that fit on the rear especially.

I think you might be able to run stock AP2 sizes: 215/45-17 front, 245/40-17 rear, without rolling the fenders, just with some negative camber. If you're on stock suspension, have the alignment shop max out front and rear camber, should put you in the neighborhood of -1.3F/-2.2R. IMO that's not excessive and doesn't lead to ridiculous wear issues. I go with zero front toe and -.2* per side, -.4* total for the rear. That's what I've run for the past few years, and I get even wear.

You could run stock AP2 tire sizes or one size up. 225/45/17 F and 255/40/17 R would look a little meatier on those widths, however you're going to need to do more work to make them fit.
Either way, with a drop I imagine you're going to need to roll and relocate tabs with those offsets. --------------------
