Default Offset Question - Do I need a roll with these?

Hey everyone, I can't seem to find a confirmed post. But would I need to get my fenders rolled with these offsets? Thx in advance.


17x7.5 +43 225/45/17 Fronts
17x9 +54 255/40/17 Rears

You should be fine with no rolling.

I would not go that far as saying no rolling. Every tire is slightly different than the next in width. The alignment can have something to say about it as well. You can make the wheels work no matter what tire you use.
If I can help let me know.

Thanks for the reply everyone. I forgot to mention, I'm lowered on kwv3's with 1 finger gap all around. I'm more concerned about the front's offset if that would rub my fender.

1 finger gap in the front I would do a mild roll just to be safe.

For the front when I had 9+55 up front (with a 225), all I did was trim the fender liner

Youll definitely rub your rears if youre lowered by 1 inch.
