Will these rub on an FC???

I am looking into a set of rims with tires for my fc and am curious if you think these will rub...

LUG PATTERNS: 4 LUG (4X114.3) & 5 LUG (5X114.3)

FRONT: 17" X 8 OFFSET +35
TOYO TRAMPIO 235/45ZR17 70% TREADS

REAR: 17" X 9 OFFSET +38
DUNLOP FM901 255/40R17 70% TREADS

Right now it will be on a completely stock suspension... upgraded later

I don't think the fronts will fit...
And I think the rears are too tight too...

Everything will fit perfect except the 235 might be tight. It'll be close, but if you ran a 225 it'l be great.. Smart to run a 255 on the rear with a +38mm. I had 275 with that offset and it was tight..

I've used this setup as well with stock style strut and spring without problems

17x8.0 +35 225/45/17

17x9.0 +38 255/40/17

Can't use 235/45/17, maybe a 235/40/17 if you don't have coilovers.

What kind of suspension do you have? That will allow us to answer this and you'll be all done.
