its a good offset to clear the insides, and look nice. fitment with fenders totally depends on tire size and camber. you'll probably clear with like 215s and camber plates, but thats a bit of a stretch.
with any decent amount of rubber, you'll want wide front fenders, and possibly pull the rears a little. (decent meaning like 245's)

When that car was for sale the owner never listed the offsets but the wheel sizes were
17x8.5 Fronts
17x10 Rears
Those are Foresight Fenders 30mm fronts and 35mm rears.

you'd have to run a decent stretch. i would guess 225/45/17 Front and 245/40/17 Rear is about the widest you could use on stock fenders (still gotta roll inner lip)
They are 17x9 +24 and 17x10.5 +27. you could prolly find other cars with similar sizes/offsets in this thread.
if you want a proper (yet agressive) alignment, you'd be better off with 17x9 all around, on like 235's. lots of camber in front, 1 degree in back.

You might clear the fenders all around with 255s and no overfenders, I'd try it first and then buy them if you need them. Your definitely going to need a lot of camber up front.

No I haventt done a fitment with rims yet? I really need to order tires soon.
I've found some great falkens at 265/40 (265 x .40 =106)for the rear.
For the front would it be better clearence with a 215?
If so, in the front should I go with:
215/45( 215 x .45 = 96.75)
*or*
215/50 (215 x 50 =107.7)
Im guessing 215/50 as the height is almost identical to the rear height.
Sorry if these are newb ?'s. Ive had 15x6 on the front and rear of my rx7 for the past year and I've never dealt with seperate tire sizing for fronts and rears. I want this to look sick when I lower my ride. I cant wait to get these rims/tires on!!!

Can I fit
18x10 +22 fronts and 18x11 -16 rears with a 30mm front fender and 35mm rear?
Here is a pic of the wheels

I think the fronts will either be 1mm into my coilovers or just clearing. I test fit a 17x9 +42 and with a 5mm spacer it still rubbed the threads on the coilover. With both my 5mm spacers it was fine. Technically I should have 7mm more clearance with the 10J +22. Also it is an 18 so it will be higher up the threads most likely giving it more clearance. The rears will stick out 5mm out of the fender. I think.
Anyone else running fitments like this?

equips have really low disc, so you will prob need spacer for the calipers in front.
the rear i think you will need 50mm at least.
which i have and would consider selling or trading for 30mm
and i saw these today on yaj, ahhaha.
