Default Ssr type f fitment

Anyone know how much of a drop I can run with a setup of:
17x7.5 et48 F 17x8.5 et58 R with a 225/255 tire setup.

I'm thinking of getting a set up ssr type f's and right now I'm dropped about1.25". But I'll have coilovers in a week and want to golower.

Even with the 225/255 setup? None of my fenders are rolled.

You should be safe with those offsets! Those are awesome wheels and were my 1st choice of wheels but i came across a nice set of CE TAs that i couldn't pass up.

I rubbed with a 9" +55, 255 tire, and 1 finger gap. That was only under extreme cornering, though. A mild roll and bumper tab relocation will solve any rubbing issues you may have, it won't take much extra clearance.

if you run into any problems you can run mild camber like 1 in the front 2 in the back... but those are pretty safe... I did rub slightly with 2 people in the car, with some 18x9 +65 rims but I was running 265s, you should be fine with 255s
