i have the same dillemma as i have the seibon cf fenders i beleive they are a bit wider than stock so i dont know what is a good offset. the rears are fine as i can easily roll them so im thinking 17x9.5 +38 for rears and for the fronts what do you guys suggest that will fit my fender?

I'm running 17x8 +45 and 17x9+45

The rears MUST be rolled. The fronts are hit or miss. I'm running 215/35's in the front now which do not rub at all but am about to throw some 235's on the front and see how that goes

Anyone run 17x9.5 +38 fronts and 17x10 +38 rears? I've been thinking of running that setup with 235/40 front and 245/40 rear tires.

I'm looking at this set-up too for Autocross...

I can roll the fenders, but I can't pull them...

This is what I was hoping for: 17x9 +45 all around with a 255/40 tire... the fronts worry me. how much rolling is needed and how bad does it mess up the fender liners?

So let me get this straight. 17X9 +45 with a 255/35 or 40 tire all around will work as long as your fenders are rolled? Currently, my rear fenders are but my fronts are not. If all i need to run this setup is to roll the front fenders to be fine then this is what i will go with. Keep in mind i plan on doing HPDE's with the car and i don't want rubbing during the hard corners. If the tires are too wide in the front would it be fine if i ran a 245/35?
