just roll the fenders and relocate the bumper tab. its really simple and its an easy DIY. your setup isn't super aggressive so you can keep the current tires on it and back off the camber.

i think you misunderstood me i have 18" work emotion cr kai which are staggered on my s2k. the front is 18 x 7.5 with falken 912 225/40/18 and the rears are 18 x 8.5 with 245/40/18 and they dont rub at all and im lowered about 2 1/2 inches front and rear im tucking tire i rolled the rear fender and cambered it in -5 degress on each side but the front didnt need anything wheels didnt rub at all front is 48 and rear is 43.

now here is what im asking i want to get rota grids 17x9.5 with a 30 offset im asking what tire sizes should i get and will i require any more moddification in order for it to not rub?
It's not that I misunderstood you, you were not clear and specific. -5* on the rear with your current tires?!?!?!?!? OVERKILL! It probably rubs on your rear bumper bolt and part of the rear bumper huh? Your rear tires specs are too tall for the rears as well. My last setup, rears were 18x10 +56 255/35/18 and I ran < -3.5 camber with so much room left between the tires and fenders. My new setup will be greatness and I shall belong in the club.

With the new setup do you want 17x9.5 +30 all around?

You would want to run +40 in the front then, not the rear.

+30 all around? FF 225/45/17 -1 to -1.5, RR 255/40/17 -3.5 to -5, fronts rolled mild flare, rears full roll, tab relocated, shaved rear bumper. That's how I would run it. Which wheels are you checking out? Grids?

nah, for flared front fenders you got to do that hammer and dolley thing. I like diez fenders if you want an oem look. (cutting the fender and widening it with a piece of metal by so many millimeters you need)
