Barely any honestly. 245's @ +47 is easy.

Welcome to the 17X10 45 club lol.
Mercury Silver looks amazing! Any close ups of your fenders front and rear?

wow, my sdrives did stretch a bit on the 10s, guess the r888 run real wide. as far as fitment the rear is no problem, gonna look at the front today. initially these fit better than my 17x9 +38 regas, with 255s and -2.5f and -3.6r camber. so i was gonna dial back less negative, but not sure now, dont want to eff up another fender.

You could probably lose a little in the rear and add some up front. Maybe -3 all around?

yeah, i trimmed the DF fenders a few mm's today, and clearance has gotten better. it does not rub around town at all, just up my crazy driveway. i just do not want to crack these fenders. i have an alignment on monday, so i may run max up fron which may be tad be under -3, and run about -3 in the back. other wise these wheels fit great.

I finally got 2 of my CE28's in today, the other 2 will be here Monday. Too bad they are already sold lol

You gotta post a pic and make me ask myself why I didn't go with formula silver haha.

Here is a shot of the wheels with the R888's mounted. I love the look, I couldn't have imagined it any better.

Damn Killer, thats no joke, i kinda wish my Yokohamas were that wide, however with the front fitting questionably with wide fenders, im good with it for now. 265s would have been perfect, but thats too much for my Kw v3s, and cr sway. cants wait to see you throw them on.

have now switched up to a 245 on rear, and soon in the future i will go 245 up front aswell. =)

I'm using 18x9.5 +30
225 in the back still rubs
Should I just use 215/35/18 in the rear as well?
That's the tire I have in the front and it doesn't rub anymore
