Default What all needs to be done to fit these?

Ok so my J's rear over fenders are in and my front fenders come in next Tuesday. Just want to make sure I have everything done to fit my wheels so I run into no problems. Wheels are:

17x9.5 +38 front and rear

Right now I will be cutting the rear quarters for the over fenders, and then doing to rear bumper tab modifications. Is there anything else that needs to be done in order to fit everything?

THANKS

You will have to take care of the front as well. I would think if you are doing a full body kit you should be fine with negative camber and a full fender lip roll.

If you are using J's front fenders and rear over fenders then you should have more than enough room. I have seen cars with that setup running 17x9 +22 and 17x9.5 +28. Both stick out 10mm farther than the the wheels you are looking at.
