Lowest Offset without Fender Roll?
Thanks for that link 
I've just found out that the only place anywhere near me that will do fender work wants to charge me 500 pounds so thats about $800 for wheels that are wide with a low offset for that concave look! Because of that I may give up on that idea and look for a different type of wheel so that I only need a basic fender roll and tab relocate.
From that link above would I be right to think that the Weds Sport TC105n in a 17x8 et49 front and 17x9 et49 rear would work a lot better?
Only other wheels I've seen that I like are XXR527's but they are 17x8.25 and then a +35 or +25 or +0 offset so would any/all of those still mean lots of work or could they work relatively easily or look weak as fcuk? also if the XXR's would work, would the 245/40/17 rear tires still fit ok or would the walls bulge? I wouldnt mind swapping the ones off my OEM wheels if i can as they were pretty much brand new when i bought the car a month ago...

Speaking from firsthand experience:
REAR:
18" x 10" +71 running a 285/30/18.......no rubbing, no modification, nothing at all
-OR-
18" x 10.5" +74 also running a 285/30/18.........no rubbing / no trimming
FRONT
18" x 8" +51 running a 225/40/18
That's with the car lowered 2".........and without all kinds of crazy camber: -1.3 front and -2.0 rear





Here is the same info for 17" wheels"
FRONT: 17" x 8" +48 215/45/17
REAR: 17" x 9 +62 255/40/17



BTW: The 17" set is for sale w/tires
