Default 17x9+63/Spoon/OEM/Stock fender

I have been searching about this question i want to ask, but i can just never find the answer i want. so here is the question

1. 17x9+63 will clear spoon caliper AND will be able to run on STOCK FRONT FENDER with 245/40-45/17?
I know it will clear spoon caliper but i got to ask this way

2. If so, why does the amuse AP1 model car need a custom front fender roll or pull?

3.What MM of spacer needed for 04-05 OEM wheel to clear spoon caliper? or it can never happen

4.Whenever using a spacer more than 5mm, how will the steering react on the track?

5.What is the color code of the takata green on the CE28n?

You need at least a 17x9 +54 to run the spoon caliper up front. That or run a +63 and run a 10mm spacer up front. By the way it looks, it is doable by running a 245 but your gonna have to run some aggressive negative camber to run this size, caliper, tire setup.

I've even seen a 9 +45 RPF1 with a 255 all around, but he still has some slight rubbing with an aggressive camber. Looks hot though

9+45 RPF1 without fender change? the main point is i don't want to do an aggressive camber
and it's has been like 7 hours since i post this topic, and still no one can really answer my question? I thought there's many pros over this board

so you had no rubbing issues on the 17x9 with 225 without changing camber or rolling fender??? I am thinkin of running 225 or 235 on 17x9 without fender rolling or changing camber but at the same time I don't want the rim to stick out so bad.....
