Wheel fitment without fender roll?
so I currently have oem 18x7.5 wheels on my 03 sedan with 15mm spacers in the rear and no spacers in the front and don’t rub at all.I found a good deal on a nice set of wheels but they are 18x9.5+12 and I just wanted to ask if they will rub? I currently don’t have my fenders rolled.Oh and I’m running tein Flex z coils that are basically set at the highest point that they can go up

don’t plan to roll them til next spring,it’s currently about to start snowing here in Chicago and don’t want to roll my fenders for them to rust out in the snow.Im asking because I found a set of aftermarket wheels with snow tires included for the same price that I’ll spend on just winter tires so I’m checking to make sure if it’ll be worth it.

G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
First of all if the fenders are rolled properly you don't need to worry about rust. The paint won't be compromised in any way so there will be nowhere for the rust to appear. Second if you're at stock height the wheels and tires will protrude outside the fender and will rub on bumps and such not to mention it'll look like *** similar to this.
Look at the pictures in the post below, I was running 235/45F and 245/45R on 18X9 +25 all around and dropped 3". With adjustable front and rear camber arms I was in factory spec alignment on all 4 wheels and had about 2 credit cards of space between the tires and the fenders.
