FC - stock replacement suspension, rolled fenders. How wide can I go?
Hey guys, I'm about to switch to a new wheel/tire setup on my S4 GXL, and I want to get about as much rubber as reasonably possible under the thing. I'm planning on rolling the fenders, and I'm open to running spacers if needed. All I really care about is getting the best handling possible out of this beast (without blowing through tires every six months.)
Possibly my biggest concern is rubbing on the suspension. I'm on Tokico Blue shocks/struts, and will be replacing the stock springs with Tein S-Techs soon.
The setups I want to use is this:
Tires: Falken Azenis
Front: 235/40 r17
Rear: 255/40 r17
Wheels: Enkei RPF1s
Front: 17x8 +45 offset (+35s should be available)
Rear: 17x8.5 +30 or +40 offset
The company I'm getting wheels/tires from is telling me those are the only offsets available, though Enkei indicates that the fronts are available in a +35 offset. Also, I know those rims are wide enough for the tires to fit on all right; is there any reason I should consider any other size wheel?
Thanks in advance!
