yea me too i have a F***ing dent above my rear tire so the asm should cover it. Also how much of the fender do you have to cut to fit a 17x9.5 rim with a 255 tire?

what offset? If you get the ASM flares you just trim the quarter panel flush to the inside of the flare so you gain about 2" (or however wide there flares are) of total clearance. You could run a 17x9.5 +38 with a 255 with no issues

Thats up to you. With a 17x8 front you would get a +45 and then you can slam it without ever worrying about flaring out the front. I would roll it just to be safe no matter what you do. r you can go 17x9x +45 or +38. Both will be a tough fit without flaring the front fender though.
