if you either roll your fenders or run lots of camber the 255's will fit if you don't want to do that run the 245's

I hate to break into someone else's thread, but will a 17x9 +54 be able to run a 255 tire with about 2 degrees of negative camber in the rear? I'll be lowered about 1-1.5 inches.

Im running a 255 on a 9.5 +44. Aggressive, but it fit's like a glove. Although, i do have a good amount of negative camber in the back and also i am rolled w/ a relocated bumper tab. SO far soo good but i haven't driven it hard yet with this set up. Its close though. Very.
