hey guys, with 17 x 9 +63 all around, will 235's or 245's work on oem fenders? if not, what kind of alignment and such would i need? ive searched, but it seems everyone is trying to run 255's with this setup. let me know guys.

sorry if this is a noob question.

damn johann... I can't wait to see your car parked at SFSU when school starts again how different is it going to be? i know my AP1 will be very different i gotta show you next time i see you pulling into a spot or sumthin, lol. anyway, with 235's or 245's, hopefully the tire stretches enough to gain some clearance? how much are you dropped? i had my rears rolled, trimmed, and a super aggressive -3.7

If you are lowered, yes, you will probably need to do some rolling. If not, you can get by

9s? you shouldnt put smaller than 255s haha .... more tire is better

245/40/17 would be a safer bet for the front fenders. If your car is lowered, I would run alot of camber to keep the front fender from getting damaged. I would bend back the front fender lining tabs just to be safe.

My old FAQ on Non-Stag

im still amazed how ppl can run 255's in the front without damaging the fenders

I run 245/45 front and 275/40 rears zero rub around 1.5 lower.

I bent my fenders pretty bad using 245/45/17. More so then the 255/40/17 that I was using before.

Then again, the tire width will vary from each tire manufacturer and also depends on how stiff your suspension is.

In the end, its how you drive the car.

16kg/mm / Max Camber / R Compounds / Track = Damaged Fender for me.
