Default 17x9 +45 on front

Will this fit in the front with a 225/45/17 and a mild roll? I'm on skunk2 springs and -1.5 camber

How much of a drop does the Skunk 2 give?

I run a 255/40/17 tire lowered with no finger gap in the front, running -1.5 camber. So Im assuming you won't rub. I have a roll and a very slight flare. Be careful on steep incline (driveways).

I'm running the exact same setup 17x9 +45 up front with 225/45/17s. My camber is closer to -2 in an attempt to go up/down my drive way. Normaly driving is fine, with a minor rub here and there. But driveways or sharp turns are scary. I've already jacked up fenders twice getting in/out of the garage. Oh and my fenders are cut not rolled so that gives even more clearance. Lowered on BuddyClub coils.

With the drop I have about a 1 finger gap in the front.

i have 17x9 +45 on my front and you just need 2 degrees or more of camber. alignment is key for this setup.
