what would you say the widest offset you could fit on those front of those cwest fenders would be?
if we're talking about lowered..

17x9 +30 235/40/17 with about -3.5 camber

or

17x9 +45 255/40/17 with about -3.0 to -3.3 camber
17x9 +45 245/40/17 with about -3.0 camber

if you aren't lowered too much,
17x9 +45 255/40/17 will work perfectly fine with about -2.6 camber or so.

Mike,

Wheels are looking good on your setup. I love the C-West fenders, very clean!


From this picture, look like the C-West fender will clears your setup without any issue.
What kind a coilover are you running? I saw two reservoirs handing in front of the radaitor support.


We still have these wheels in stock at special price!

Thank you,
William

17x9.5 +47 with 255/40/17 was my old setup that worked perfectly fine.

17x9.0 +45 with 255/40/17? hmmm..

you can try it if you want. if you live in OC, you can come over and try out my fender. And If you want it, i'll give you low price

Hey William, thanks for making this available for me
I am running JRZ coilovers.

for future reference,
the 17x9 +30 setup will not work for the cwest fenders, seibon fenders, or any aftermarket 10mm fenders (even after you shave the tabs). I would say in order to run the 17x9 +30 on 10mm aftermarket fenders, you would have to get 235 size non-r-compound tires (on top of this, you would have to shave the 1 inner tab located on the very top & shave down a couple millimeters of the inner edge).

however, there is a possibility that a rolled & pulled OEM fender will work fine.

If I run a 225/45/17 on the oem ap2 v1 front will I have any problems with rubbing or possibly cracking the fenders pulling into a steep driveway. I'm lowered probably 1.25". I don't want to run some crazy alignments either. I'm looking at these or the downforce fenders.
