Does anyone have any reasons not to go 235/40 in on Dunlop direzza star specs as they are wider than normal?

you could get the new pf01's for the same price in the +60 offset and not have all that trouble or get the 235's I'm picking up another set of rp's at some point with conti 235's

me too looking for safe fitment.

i have to stick with OEM sized 215/245 staggered tires. (17" of course).
the car is lowered ~1.1" and i use ~2 degr cambers at all wheels.


how about fitmnent of following RFP1's?
7.5" +48
9" +45

input i've got so far from 1tsxer (thx for that !!!) that fronts will be fine but rear fender tabs will need relocating.

i really would like to avoid fender rolling.....

anyone else have same setup?

I don't run the same set up

but

The fronts SHOULD be fine. TBH I would still roll the fronts cause if the tires get caught in those fender tabs, you can damage your fenders. I'm sure you would rather have a rolled fender than a damaged fender.

The rears will fit perfectly fine. Like 1tsxer has said, you would have to relocate your bumper bolt and trim your bumper a bit.

One question tho, why do you want to avoid fender rolling? It'll get rid of all the chances of messing other things up.

edit: didn't read the front 215 tire size. I think with the 215 you should be fine on the fronts w/o doing any work.
