The msport kit is a wide body kit that 20 & 30 mm means that the fenders are that much wider than the stock ones.

Well consider this, i doubt you will find +20 wheels in the stock width in a 17" or 18" wheel. So its not that simple.

Also it seems your concerned with having the flush look and running hipari tire. KNOW that this is the worst place to ask for anything but what simple math based on the stock offsets can provide. With that being said, i've seen the hella dished fn01rs which i think are 17/18 x 10 +10 (with out checking) on an FC before with what i think are the +30 rear fenders. Its all a matter of how you like it. Just a warning tho, low offsets, hipari tire and fender gap DO NOT MIX so becareful when choosing.

well i was thinking +30mm fenders in the front and +20 in the rear and 18x9F 18x10R with an offset of about +24 i think it should work fine maybe a + 14 would be pretty good in the front leave a good couple mm for clearance
