How do they get these to fit?
Hey everyone,
I have seen people running 17x9+45 RPF1s on all corners and was wondering what modifications they had to do in order for them to fit properly (fender modifications, tire sizing, camber adjusting, etc.). I was looking at the "Wheel Fitment Guide" but, being a noob, I couldn't really figure things out. Can anyone help?
Thanks.

For the front you need to roll the fenders and flare them out a bit. For the back, you need to roll them and relocate the back bumper tab. If you want them for looks thats fine, but they are intended for handling reasons, and you need alot more done to actually make them work. Just go with the 17x8/9 combo
Well I wanted 17x9s all around because I wanted to go with a non-staggered setup for the looks, handling, and being able to rotate tires. What do you mean by "you need a lot more done to actually make them work"? If you don't mind me asking.

With the bumper tabs cut, you really cant see anything from the outside, but I'll see if I have some pics of them.
