Default offsets

i know how offsets on wheels work, but how far can i go before i have to roll my fenders? i'm looking at the enkei "gtc-01's", and if i went 17 x 8 in the front with a 48 offset, and 17 x 9 with a 40 offset, would i clear my fenders, or do i rool them.

i've always had fwd vehicles so now that im rwd i'd appreciate any advice from you guys

With those offsets i think you ill have to roll your fenders. But it also depends on the camber and lowering .

ive got 17x9.5+38 all around with 225/45 245/40 and we could have gone with lower offset if we had a little more stretch

17x8 +48 front is descent if you run a 215 tire. You might just need more camber and not a front roll.

As for the rear, 17x9 +40 needs a roll. I have 17x9 +45 with a 245 and im rolled.
