^ wow your tires are going to be stretched i have no clue if it will work. If it does work if you go up a driveway or over a big bump your fenders will get pwned i would just roll front and rear to avoid nicking your fenders

It appeared that the only thing to roll on the front fenders was the tab for the fender liner. I've seen other members run 235-245 tires up front on a 9' + 45 without pulling the fenders. How did they get away with this? Will the fender lining get f'd up?

thanks

It might be able to work on there cars but remember yours is lowered 1 1/2". If the tab is rolled yes that will prevent you from messing up the fenders while driving, but most people who messes up there fenders happens on driveways/ dips in the road, hence if your lowered 1 1/2 inches and going up a incline driveway sideways your +45 offset 9 wide rims will hit the fenders pushing the fender out thus = pwned fenders. I'm unsure how the 225 tire will affect this but if your going 225 tire might as well get the 8" rim. which might help alittle I remember last year when i had tein s tech + Koni shocks = 1 1/2 drop and i messed up my fenders on 17/8/+45 offset rim so 17/9 i would imagine is worse hope my input helped good luck

Ok, I've been wanting to be on this page for a while now. Now its my time! Fronts are 17x8 + 45 with stock fenders lowered on Espelirs.. Rears are 17x9.5 + 38 with rolled fenders. I love this wheels.. I am thinking of painting them. Actually, am gonna paint them. I am not sure as to what color tho..
I am also thinking of cutting off one coil off the front springs, what do you guys think??
