Are you planning on lowering or are you already lowered? If no it should be ok. If you lower the fronts could rub when they are turned.

That's only 5mm less than the factory offset 17s right? I'd think a gentle fender roll would be sufficient up front for a lowered car.

It should be ok but it is something to watch. I have seen oem wheels ruin fenders so just check your liners regularly and be careful of driveways. The rear will require more camber when lowered to clear.

It will also depend on the tire size you run as well. Stock height, the fronts are good. I have volks as well, 17x7.5 offset 52 and lowered an inch. I rub the fender tabs some times if I take hard turns because my suspension is soft and run 225.

The rear should be fine even if you lowered it as long as you do a 245 tire. 255 tire will be cutting it close
