Default Wheel and Tire Fitment help for 17x9+35 all around

I got a set 17x9 +35 wheels that I'd like to use with my s2000.
I' have stock suspension with swift spec r springs installed and Im wondering how much of a pull and what tires can I fit. I'm not looking to fit 205s so that's out of the question.
I would like to do 255 all around I don't mind running camber but I would like to keep the stock camber bolts without having to purchase any other suspension part.
I spoke to Shane who some of you might know from fender rolling down here in LA and he said it was doable.
Any links to threads and pictures and info is welcome! Thanks in advance!

How low are you with the springs?

You will be able to make it work by dialing in the stock camber bolts and rolling fenders. Front camber at 2 to 2.5* and a roll and slight pull. The less camber you wanna run the more pull needed. Rears rolled flat with bumper tab relocation and 2.5 to 3* camber and you're good to go. I hope this info helps. I'll try to post pics and thread links when I'm at the computer. Too hard to do on mobile site.

John and Henry over at Temple City Auto helped me fit this setup yesterday. 17x9 +35 all around, 215/45/17 in front, 225/45/17 in the rear, had to roll the fenders, trim some fender liner, running 2.5 degrees of camber in front, 4 in the rear, toe at spec, looks amazing. I have coilovers though so not sure how it would have worked with just lowering springs. I still gotta relocate the rear bumper tab, wanted to see if i could get by without it but it rubs hard just on that part on hard bumps. if you are trying to run bigger tires you will need more work, probably pulling fenders and max out camber. if you wanna run bigger tires, get +45 offset to make it easier. I like the stretch look and honestly my stretch isn't even THAT much, plenty of sidewall for safe daily driving. definitely NOT a track setup, this is for low and slow lovers.
