Default 17" CE28n's with Azenis 615's

I've been searching for quite a while trying to find out if a set of Azenis 615 in a 225 45 17 and a 255 40 17 would rub on a set of Ce28ns 17x7.5 50 offset and 17x9 63 offset. Car being lowered 1 inch.

Every post i see is never one sided.

I know that these tires in these sizes work fine on a stock set of AP2 rims (at least thats whats most people say).

Help me out please.
Some of you that have used this setup and i alway see the Ce28ns for sale with the azenis on them

I'm lowered an inch in front and 1/2 inch in back and have Volk 17" RE30s with same offset. I have Bstone 225/255 with no issues. You should be fine.

I have 215/255 RT 615's. No rubbing. I had -1 degrees camber front and -2 degrees camber rear FYI. You shouldn't rub but if you do just dial in a little more neg camber.

You should be fine. The 63 offset is good enough to run the 255s out back and not rub.

Ya from what i have read, the front is the problem area for rubbing.
Which explains why a 215 would work. I'm just trying to get the widest tire on these rims...

Toddyosh..

How much are you lowered and do you know your camber settings?

Thanks for the info SOHCmyDOHC.. I guess i could alway go with the 215 up front.
