Does anyone run a 275/40/17 square setup ? If so how do the front fit with stock rolled fenders. Also what size and offset rim do you run?

How do they fit? Poorly, you won't find any examples, unless the front fenders look like they have seen 2 campaigns in Nam.

Even rolled you aren't fitting that tire up front. With that wide of a tire you will rub the inside with an offset and width that would fit within the oem fender. If you had downforce fronts then you could probably fit them.

If you stay at stock ride height and pinch it on a 7" rim you might that would be sweet!

Even then the oem suspension will probably be in the way. Coilovers are much smaller so the wheel has more room to move in there.

I was being more satirical, but regardless, your absolutely correct.

Don't forget the taller tire will cause issues as well. You might have issues with the headlight brackets hitting the tires

I'm running a 17x10 275/40 square setup on mine. Front offset is +57 and running ASM style fenders. Fits with no issues including clearance against suspension components. I'm also running a steering rack spacer.

Stock rolled fenders was the question, not aftermarket wide fenders.
