Yep, you would be better off running a 225/45 or shorter 235/40. But if you want a 255 up front, you should go with a less aggressive offset like a +50 at min and +55-60 best.

I run 17x9+45 with a 255/40 on the front and it's very very aggressive. I already cracked my stock rolled fenders. Another 5mm more would be so much worst. I don't see your setup fitting properly on stock rolled fenders.

These guys tried to put a 17x9+40 255/40 on and they failed so bad. There even made a video on YouTube. They had to murder and pull the fenders like crazy for the front to fit. They ended up geting downforce +30 fenders.
The Internet and stance/show guys will tell you that anything fits. But functually from a performance/track perspective many times they do not fit.

I thought one of the Shg guys ran this setup with -3.2 camber and rolled/slightly flare fenders. It seemed he cleared just fine. I wonder how the rear would fit with around -3.0 camber
