Default Any wheels specialist around here?

I'm about to change up my setup on the S. Change from the safe side to the dangerous low offsets. haha

I was looking to get some

17x8 +42
17x9 +35

I was just wondering if anyone around here could help me with the fender rolling/relocating the rear bumper tabs if I have to, and give me decent advice on how much to camber the rear without rubbing.

Looking to get this done by the end of next month.

almost positive you will need to relocate bumper tab, mine's dropped about that much, offsets aren't that crazy, and mine rubs on bumper tab

The fronts wont be a problem with OEM size tires, Ive done 18x8 on 215 wide +42 with no issues.. currently running 18x8 +40 on 225 and the fronts do rub if youre lowered quite a bit

i was assuming you would run at least 235s in the rear, if you run smaller than that, you might have better luck

Ya Ronnie/stickman can roll them for you for a really good price. I'm sure he can probably help you figure out how to move the bumper tabs too, its not hard.
