Rears will do just fine with the size of tire you're running, with only a roll
Your rear tires may not be 275's, but here's something with a somewhat similar offset and width.

So two say I need coilovers and another says they will fit just fine. lol. I can get them for fairly cheap and they are on a slammed 240 right now.
Here is a pic of the rims on the 240

17x9 +22 and 17x10 +18 on an fc with coilovers and a healthy fender roll/ pull?
could also go 17x10 +38. planning on running 235/40/17 azenis in the front and 255/40/17 azenis in the rear. some negative camber is fine as the car isn't a daily ... thanks for the help.

I'm running 30mm front and rear fenders and looking to run:
18x10 + 25 with 265/35/18's all the way around.
Do you think this will work? Keep in mind this is for a road course car, not a hellaflush cruiser.

anyways here is the tires I'm looking at for these rims.
Fronts are 17x7 offset 35
Rears are 17x8 offset 32
Fronts 205/45
Rears 225/45
will these clear the stock fenders/wheel wells?

Will these fit within the stock fenders? Will I need spacers? Does anyone have pictures of wheels with these specs installed on an fc? Also what tire sizes should I run if I plan to do a 1 or 1.5 inch drop? I tried to follow what RETed said to run but the offsets of these are a little off. Also not sure what the hub sizes mean? Can anyone help? I hope they'll still work! Thanks guys!
Front: ROTA Wheel Torque 17x8 (5x114.3+35mm, 73 Hub)
Rear: ROTA Wheel Torque 17x9 (5x114.3+30mm, 67.1 Hub)
Picture is just a reference of how awesome they look!
