Default wedssport tc105n tire fitment question

So im new to the forum and in the process of picking up a set of tc105n's. I would be picking this wheels up in the 17X9X17 +49 size and have a question in regards to tire size i want. I ideally want the Federal 595 RS-R's in 255/40/17. I have searched and i know i do need higher than +50 but i really want to fit these rims. the rear is rolled and i have stock fenders. I am currently changing the suspension back to stock springs as i know mr H&R springs probably will not clear. would i have to pull the fenders or is a roll enough? Im also concerned because the RS-R are generally alittle wider than the size suggests. anyone with this setup or close to this setup with any advice? Thanks guys!

You should be able to make them fit. If the rear is already rolled and the tab relocated then you are good there. For the front roll the fenders and get an alignment. I have a 17x9 +43 with a 245 tire in front and it clears fine. Currently running 2 degrees of camber in front and I don't think you will need much in the rear. Maybe 2 degrees. As for suspension you may be able to run the springs but I don't know how low those springs drop the car. I would sell them and get some coilovers so you have control over how much it is dropped.

You will be able to run them with a 255 with just a mild roll depending on how much camber you have

+1 on manga getting the coilovers if you can.. im running the same wheel and offset on a 255/45/17 tire. My rears are pulled and rolled with tab relocated (like manga said you wont need as much in rear) . Im running asm cf front fenders though. But i think you'll be able to fit the front with some pull and roll

^ You mean 255/40/17 right? And Like I said you can fit it just fine with proper roll and alignment.

If you're rolled you will be fine with 255/40s
