Default 17x8 + 38 All Around?

17x9 + 38 All Around would definitely require fender work, i understand, but is there anything else i need to be worried about?, and do the fenders need to be rolled lightly, or does it need major modifications?

Any input would be great, and i figured i'd run non staggered, unless anyone would convince me otherwise? lol

Thanks Guys

-Brian

depends on the tire size with a 225 tire you shouldnt need to depending on the sidewall height and drop - you should probably also add a whiteline front sway bar to your shopping list.

you could stretch a 235 with a low sidewall and maybe be ok with a little work depending on the brand of tire.

im in the same situation you are right now, gonna be running 17x9 +38 all around thinking of doing a 245/40/17 in the rear and either 225/45 in front or 235/40 not sure yet. i mean rears you def gotta relocate fender tabs but fronts prob cut some lining and do a slight pull. im actually considering cutting the fender for a cleaner look.
