No they don't rub at all. I lowered the car before I got these wheels. 17x8 +45 front with the factory 215/45/17 tire and 17x9 +45 rear with 245/40/17. I could actually go a little lower if I really wanted to, but I'm just going to leave it the way it is. If you opt for the 17x7.5 +48 it will sit even further in the wheel well.

Not really, I mean I haven't tried it at any speed other than a crawl. I can drive over speed bumps straight on, or go down bumpy roads and not have a problem. They fit perfectly for not having to do any fender modification.

I just got a set 17x8 +45 and 18x9.5 +45
I'm trying to pick out some rubber I'm thinking nitto nt05 225/40 and 245/40
I will be installing fortune auto 500's
Hoping to leave fenders untouched don't mind a roll though

Tires sizes for double stagger should be 225/45/17 and 255/35/18 and will definitely need rolled fenders.
Pertaining to the original post, I would never run this size up front without a roll. I did years ago and my old AP1 has the tweaked fenders to prove it. You might think it's fine until you run into the wrong situation.

The 8inch+45 is already very aggressive for the front. Just leave them alone. I have the 17x9+45 for the front and they are way to aggressive for the stock front fenders even though lots of people run them. They caught my fenders going up a driveway and crack the fenders. This was also on stock suspension. I have since ran -2.5 camber to help with this issue.

First off way to bump a 3 year old thread. Second the recommendation is still the same here. The front should be roll especially if the car is lowered. 17x8 +45 with a 225 will run through the liner and grab the fender eventually. They are to aggressive to not roll your fenders.
