M/Ts on 17x9. For an FC

Ok. Ive never had any test time with Mickey Thompsons.

But...

Will a 275/40R17 ET Street fit on a 17x9 wheel. On an S4 with stock fenders?
Fenders are rolled. And Dunlop S8000 were ran. (275mm)
But Im not sure about the M/Ts, cause I think they might be a tad puffier.

Let me know.

Im not sure on what the offset will be. Since I still have the factory wheels on. Im just trying to plan ahead and see what can and cant be done. lol

But thats the overall size Id like to run, and the track tires Id like to use.

Can anybody give me a range of what my offest would have to be?

go for +35. that will give you the most even fit between the trailing arm and the fender. i know people have fit 275 street tires with +35 (rolled fenders).
you said you already have 275s on there? huh?

Yes. 275's fit with rolled fenders.
And the wheels were a +38 offset.

Im just not sure about the sizer of the Mickey Thompsons. Cause I know they are a bit bigger then a lot of tires.
