Default Need help with wheel fitment

Before I get beat to death about the search bar I have found similar posts but wondering if anyone can give me direct advise about mods needed for fitment at my height. My 07 s2000 is lowered .7 front and 1" rear, I ordered 17x9.5 +41 te37. Will a fender pull be needed with most 255 tires? I realize I will be rolling fenders and doing a bumper tap relocate. Can a street able camber spec be obtained? Will I need an after market camber kit or will there be enough adjustment stock?

With the minimum drop you should not need a camber kit. You are going to need to do the fender lip roll and the most negative camber that Honda recommends,
If I can help with the tires let me know.

The problem is running that wheel up front. Its not going to fit no matter what with a 255. You will need to aggressively pull the front fenders and you will still not get enough camber up front to make up the difference. If you wasn't to risk it anyway, do yourself a favor and put a 245 on there to get a little sidewall stretch to help. For the rear it will work with 255. But if your main goal here is to run a non staggered tire, then your going to need to run 245 out back too. A 9.5 +50ish would be much better. Then you could do a 255. You would still need to pull the front fenders some, but it would at least accommodate.

I run a 17x9 +62 up front with a 255 tire and all I had to do is bend up my fender tabs a little. I am lowered as well.
