RE-Amemiya AW7 fitment

I know it will bother some that I am illiterate when it comes to wheel fitment but I figured i would post anyway. A set of re AW7s have become available with 17x 8.5 front w/ 225/45/17 17x9.5 rear w/ 255/40/17 +42 offset. Im pretty sure they will fit nicely but maybe someone can tell me different? Is there anything Im gonna need to do to be comfortable with the wheel fitment?

Maybe a fender roll, but you should do that anyway with aftermarket wheels.

Offset is +42 front and back? Those will fit stock fenders fine, especially with those tire sizes. You shouldn't need any kind of fender roll if your ride height is reasonable.

Reasons not to get them? Excessive weight, and if you don't like the look of them

what would be needed to fit on a FC. the only idea i have, is a 1" spacers on all 4 wheels and wider fenders/quarter.

i have RE Amemiya race suspension.

and the RE Amemiya AW7 i have are :
17x8.5 , and 17x9.5 , but i dont know the offset !!


and, they arent heavy at all,... compared to all other rims i had. even lighter then some advan racing wheels i had.
