Default 17x9 +22 with 255/40/17 tire in Front! Help me!

What bumpers will the J's Racing fenders fit onto with those extension pieces.

I want to run a 17x9 +22 with a 255/40/17 tire up front, but im not sure how to go about this.

Will a J's wide fender fit the OEM front AP2 bumper or am i forced to buy the J's bumper?

What can i do to fit them?

Also...my car is pretty low...not slammed like Silentdancer, but i have a little over a 2 inch drop

Help me fit my 17x9+22's with some 255's in the front!

J's designed it as a kit...meaning you need all the pieces in order for it to work properly and have good fit and finish. I suppose you could make your own extensions though

The bigger question is...why is it so important to run such a low offset. You can fit a 18x10 up front with 285s with a minor roll on the stock fenders if you wanted to.

It will fit on an ap1 bumper, or an ap2. The ap2 will need a little more work, and you'll have to cut the pieces at a certain point to shorten them.

I believe it'll also fit a few aftermarket bumpers as well aside from the j's.

18x10 285 with a minor roll? maybe if you werent very lowered or a +60 offset and -4 camber and some..

im running a 17x9.5 +47 255 tire up front and my fenders are rolled/pulled to hell to fit. granted im running -2.2 camber.

imo, the js fender w/the extensions is too aggressively looking to flow properly with an oem bumper.
