You should be worried about the front unless you mean you are buying wider front fenders. The rear will fit with the standard roll, tab relo and camber but the front will need a roll and pull and probably -3 camber.

I will run the 30mm wider front fenders. I was hoping to get away with no rolling in the rear. It's not possible to squeeze a 255 back there cleanly?

Here are 18x9 +40 on 255/35's that I just put on probably not the best pic. If I go any lower I will def need a roll:

Danu,
That is kind of close to the size I just ordered and am worried about fitment issues,
I'm getting :
Front 18X8 w/+40mm and 225/40-18 tires
Rear 18X9.5 w/+40mm and 245/35-18 tires
What did you have to do to your fenders to fit?
Do you get any rubbing, if so under what circumstances?
My car is not lowered.
Your car looks great!!!
Thanks for your anticipated help...

Confirming:
17x8.5 +65 (OEM AP2v1) fit in the front with a 245/40/17 tire? (Z1 star specs)

I have OEM fenders on now and they aren't rolled, however the splash shields are removed and tab bent out of the way

Yea the rear rub tires rub when I hit large bumps, corner hard, or if I have a 200lb passenger in the car. Will need to roll rear fenders and bumper tab relocate. Daily driving is 90% fine.

Yes roll the fenders. It is going to cut up your tire and if it grabs something it can cause some nasty damage,

You don't want to run either. The First set is to narrow to be an upgrade and will look like crap and the second set isn't even really an upgrade from AP1 OEM wheels so why bother. Sell both and buy wheels that are either AP2 oem specs or an improvement on those specs.
