Thumbs up Need some help

Im going to be running 17x9+30 all around,...well thats the plan.

anyways i know rubbing is going to be an issue and fitment is going to be tricky.

Im rolling right now with a no finger gap on all four corners.

I wanted to ask you wheel guys
what would be a good tire size? i dont mind alittle stretch and of course im going to have to run some.

also as far as alignment? just off the top of your head how much camber will i be needing to run...?

any help will be greatly appreciated

You are going to need to do more than roll the fender lips to make a 17X9 ET30 fit. The 225/45R17 is outside of the tire mfg's recommendation for proper fit. You will be stretched.

Im going to get my fenders rolled/flared & rear bumper tab relocated

Its going to be hard but ive seen much more aggressive setup's on stock body so i know i can make it work....

Start with max camber to make them fit, and then see how much room u have left.
