Default SA-72R 17x9.5 +47 fitment

Going square! Just snagged some SA72s and they clear my AP kit by a mile, now I am worried about clearance on the fenders. I have -2.6 camber and a roll, lowered about 1” with 10k springs. What is the over/under on fender contact?

As long as you have a good roll, you'll be fine. What tire?

You didnt list the tire width you are running. But either 245 or 255 you will be able to clear the rear without issue and if 255 up front you will need to do a little pull to help tuck without rubbing.

Sorry guys, RS4! Good to know, I don’t mind pulling, my one fender took on a guardrail already this season. I just want them to fit!

You want to know if your tires are going to rub and still even after asking, no tire size given, but a brand offered instead? Good luck.

I knew what you meant. The other guy has a history of not being able to connect the dots.

Either way, you should be fine. I run the exact same size and offset wheels on my car with a 255 r-comp (Maxxis RC-1) and I'm nowhere near rubbing.

Not sure anything was implied? Since the only tire info offered was "squared". On a 9.5" a 245, 255 or even a 275 could be run. I like to get all the pertinent information before i start advising people with 100% confidence.

Sorry, who are you again?

I'm implying that you are dumb.
