I was sort of right.

I run 17x9 +63 on the front of mine with 245 40 17 hoosier a6, my car is pretty low. The only rub is at full lock turing right. Does not damage the tire. You may need to trim the fender liner as it gets in the way and tuck up the tabs on the fender. You do not need a full roll.
