They don't, well not in the drift series, the normal grids come close enough to fit but they don't concave like this
wrong. they make them in 17x9 +42 which will fit without any work on standard suspension. if your going low you need to do a bumper tab relocation and a slight roll but nothing massive.

I know they do the +42 ones, but a) without lowering it will look ridiculous, and b) he asked for 'without arch modification' and to me a slight roll and bumper tab relocation is still arch modification, how little it maybe!

i have also got them in the matt bronze

and heres a picture just to tease

I'm not sure about "no arch mods".
Mine are 9.5/18/et 38s,the 4mm difference isn't really a lot....but you might get away with it,good luck,I think it's worth the work because the look sooooo good,imoh.

With slightly stretched tyres you should be fine, something like a 225 or 235 on a 9J rim would fit and look good

those wheels are a more agressive offset i think thats why the wider fenders are needed,
i have 8j et34 in the front of my s2k and the fitment is perfect

They are 1inch wider front wings,may possibly be ok with et 48,you would have to fit them and see,my wheels stick out further because the disc bells are around 5mm thicker than stock anyway,

White wheels look surprisingly good on the nurby.
