Default Quick offset question

Ok would I have any problems with a 17x7.5 42 offset and 17x8 44 offset saying I use 225 for fronts and 253-245 for rears dropped about 1.5 or so so theres no wheel gap.

I would say yes you would have problems. I have 17x8 +45 in the rear wtih a 245 tire and if I lowered it 1.5" it would rub. I think with rolled fenders I would still need a bit more camber if I was lowered.

Heres a good thread to reference.

If you never drive over bumpy roads and never take hard turns so that the suspension compresses even a little bit, you'll be fine. Otherwise, you'll rub like Absorbine Jr.
