The front is an aggressive fitment. You may need to roll your front fenders or add neg camber. I'd recommend 215/45/17 and 255/40/17 tires.

I would go with 215/45R17 and 245/40R17 with the 17X9 with the 54mm offset

Would these rub even on stock suspension? Or only when lowered? Is there a big difference on what will or will not rub depending on whether or not the car is lowered?
