CE28N's in 17X10 +45 - what size tire for an easier fit? 245/40 or 255/40? Any more pics of 17X10 +45 on the S2K?

255/40/17 all four with -2f and -3r.
you can run 265 all around if you have downforce fenders or anything over 30mm. the 10's actually goes in more than a 9 or a 9.5 with 35 offset.

Excellent info guys, I appreciate it greatly!
I have an '01 Silverstone with stock fenders (I plan to keep OEM fenders) so it looks like 255/40 is probably the best option and -2 front and -3 rear camber isn't horrendous where it will eat tires in 5K miles.

I'll definitely get the 17X10 +45 then.

I kept the oem fenders too. This is how they looked before mounting.

They are about 25mm stretched.

can anyone recommend the best place to order the wheels? I doubt anybody stocks these though. PS-does anyone have a pic comparing the hub depth difference between the 10 +45, and the 9.5 +35?

Pharrel; that looks pretty good. Did you have rubbing issues with the 245/40 before the stretch?

pharrel, whats the clearance like up front at full lock? I have 17x9 +38 in the front now and at full lock it does rub inner liner, also any concerns hitting the frame or susp. arms with that wide of a rim?

No rubbing at all.

It doesn't hit anything on the inside either. Not even at full lock.
Camber up front is -2.5, rear -3.0
