Default FN01R-C on ap2

Read through a lot of the thread and want to make sure I have it correct.

I want a set of 5zigen fn01r-c.

My goal is 225/45/17 tire in front and 255/40/17 tire in the rear. The car will eventually be lower than stock.

My wheel sizes should be 17x8 +58 (or higher) on the front and 17x9 +50 (or higher) on the rear.

However:
Looks like +43 is the highest offset they make in these wheels (in this bolt pattern). How are the other s2ki members fitting these wheels?

From my calculations using
17x8 +43mm = 12mm closer to fender= .47 inches closer to fender. That seems like it should fit.

17x9 +43mm = 22mm closer to fender than stock = .86 inches closer to fender. Again that seems like it should fit without issue.

Input? Experience?

They will fit. Just roll front and rear 1/4's, cut rear bumper tab, and relocate rear bumper bolt. Easy.

I have those EXACT offsets and they fit great. I use them for track wheels cause they are light. I am running 225 255 and have no rubbing with a roll bumper bolt relocation and some camber. And I am LOW. They look great too the rears have a concave face.

I noticed you all have AP1. Any difference between AP1 vs. AP2 in relations to fitting these wheels?

Any DIY or write ups on relocating the bumper bolt?

How does rolling the fenders affect the tabs that hold the fender liner?

Will using this set up throw a lot of road debris onto the body? The wheels aren't completely tucked.

Thanks for the info so far.

My AP1 is getting delivered at the end of the month.. I've been offered a set of stock AP2 rims, does it mean the AP2 rims will replace the stock AP1 rims with no problems?
