Default Will they fit?

Hi All,

Found a pair of TE37 that I would love to pick up but want to make sure I can fit them without having to pull my fenders. The set is staggered 17, 8.5/9.5 +40. My car is a completely stock BB AP1, I know I would need some camber and the fenders rolled at a bare minimum but what has me worried is the 9.5 +40 in the rear. If I ran 245/40/17 in the rear and 225 or 235 in the front do you guys think they will fit? Thanks in advance, this is my first attempt at an aggressive fitment.

Should work with a good fender roll and -3(ish) camber. I'd run 235/40 front, 245/40 rear.

Not sure if you plan on keeping it stock height but aggressive fitments won't look good unless you lower it. You won't be able to achieve enough negative camber either.

You can squeeze a 255 in the rear if you want more rubber without pulling, but you will need more camber then if you ran a 245, so its dependent on if just a street car or your tracking it. Regardless you shouldn't need anymore then -3 for either option out back, I wouldn't run more then that anyway for performance reasons. 225/45 or 235/40 up front will fit with roll.

Thanks for the insight guys. It will be driven everyday so the camber can't be over the top. I was planning on getting some lowering springs and keeping my stock AP1 dampers for the time being. Any suggestions for which spring to go with? I know swift spec R seem to be quite popular.
