Default Another RPF1 thread

Hi guys,

Here's my story, I have seen a lot of guy who said that 17x9+45 will fit with 245 in the rear without any roll, and I lot of guy said they had to roll..

I have an '03 S2K with 13 500 miles on it and I dont want to roll fenders to keep the OEM toutch. I was about to order 17x8+45 F and 17x9 +45 rear but i'm confused. I want to be sure that they fit.

Does anyone run a 2'' drop with 245 without any roll? I dont mind to put camber..

Thanks

People with no rubbing are at stock height. Lowered at all, and especially 2", you need a roll even with camber. The front would actually be even worse though, no way you are fitting that with a 2" drop.

Not a chance. You have to roll your fenders if you are lowered.

I have rpf1 17x9 et45 with 245/40/17 in the rear I have a 1inch drop. No rolling but if your looking for 2inch drop your probably going have to roll. I was in the same boat my car only has 16k miles. I didn't want to touch the fenders just in case I sell my car later on. But im going to give in and roll. The 1 inch drop doesn't look good. I'll be ok with a roll but I don't want to do the relocate tab
