Default will gram light 57s 17x7.5 and 18x8.5 fit?

Hey there guys I was wondering if there wheels will fit on my ap1 with koni yellows and stock springs. Offset is +40 in both from and rear. Tire size is 225/45 in front and 255/40 in rear. Please if someone can get back to me that would be great!!!

PS.. my car is running UK alignment if that would effect anything.

Same exact answer I gave in your other thread. You will need to roll the front (since the rear is rolled) relocate the rear tabs and possibly run a little more camber. If you are at stock height though I think it is going to look goofy like you are off roading. You will definately have to get the height dialed in after you put the wheels on.

255/40 on an 18x8.5 is going to look meaty unless that is the look you're going for. I suggest a 255/35 for the rear to keep the diameter the same as the fronts. And if you don't want the tire to bulge out of your wheels you can go for 215/45/17 for the front and 245/35/18 for the rear. It'll sit square. You'll still have to modify your fenders all around so they don't rub.
