Default PF01SS Squared Setup

I really like the look of the SS with the bigger lip.

This being a 100% street/weekend car. I was thinking of going,

Front 245/40/17 & Rear 255/40/17

Would that setup be fine on a 100% stock car, or would I still run into issues?

If so I will go with the staggered setup.

Thanks for the help.

I run Front 245/40/17 & Rear 255/40/17 on a street car w/ no issues. Wheels size is 17x9 +61. Next time I'll do 255 square.

The 17x9 +60 can work with stock fenders. i still got an occasional rub in the front when i wasnt super careful going into driveways(with a 255/40 and lowered about 0.5-1 inch). So i ended up rolling the fenders to be safe. I have the 17x9 +48 in the rear and that required a roll and tab relocation.

I got 245 all 4 with 17x9 +48. The rear is flush really nice with the body. The front is poking out a little. Next set I'll go 235 in the front or get a pair of 17x8 or 17x9 +60.
My car has about 1" drop. I have to roll all 4 corners.

When you say the front is poking out do you mean the tire or the wheel?

Both wheels and tires with 245 on 17x9+48. I did put a bar on the side wall (vertical) and measure the gap. It's about half an inch out. The wheels are about 3/8" out. The back is nicely flush. Anyone have a pair of 17x8 or 17x9+60 to tread?

Yeah +60 range offset works on stock fenders up front if not lowered too crazy, but you get into the +48 you are going to have issues and need to roll your fenders. They will stick out, certainly if you are running near stock camber alignment.

Will fit fine if they are the +60's.
