Default Would these wheels fit?

I searched already but i want to double check if anyone has had first hand experience with this fitment. Anyways the specs are:

super advans
16x7 +35 offset on 205/45/16
16x8 +38 offset on 225/45/16

this would be on a 03 ap1 with eibach prokit (about 1" drop)

would i have issues with rubbing with rolled rear fenders?
thanks for any input.

I would say you are going to need to do some modification to make those work. Fender lip roll and negative camber along with the narrower tires.

the previous owner had my rear fenders cut to fit a 17x8.5 +42mm wheel with a 245/40 tire with no rubbing issues. anyone have any personal experiences with sizes like this? i found a couple old threads but they are always 50/50 on this topic.

You will rub if you do not mod the fenders. 55 series up front will be best to get the same rotational diameter as your stocks. If not your speed to speedometer ratio will be off

you think the fronts need fender work as well? the rears have been cut already so i'm not worried about that
