Default thinking about 17x7 +28, 17x8 +35

will these sit flush with just a roll and slight pull? or is it too aggresive?

either gonna run 215/245 or 225/255?

help please.

Just a basic roll on the fronts with a 215/45 tire. And roll the rears.

With that offset you are going to need more than a fender lip roll. They stick out toward the fender an inch more than the stock AP2 wheels on the front. Add that the car is lowered and I would say you are going to do more than roll the fenders.

im running a 8+35 in the front with just a roll and a 215/45 tire. Thats 6mm more agressive then a 7+28.

Its easier to fit a wider wheel because u can stretch the tire.

I think rolling fenders + camber should be fine. His wheels equate to 17x8+40 and 17x9+47.

Yea but a 215/45 will be pinched a little on a 7 inch wheel causing less clearance.
