Meaning ur wheels are even or close to the edge of the fender wheel. Your offsets and how wide the wheel is determines that. The lower the offset and the wider the wheel the further it comes out. Front fenders are already rolled. Rear ones will need to be rolled depending on ur wheel specs. Not sure how much you are lowered but on stock height you won't have to rolled rear fenders with those specs. I'm at stock height and I'm fine with 9.5 inch wide wheel with a +20 offset. I can drop and inch maybe 1.5 and won't have to roll. Any lower and I would

With those offsets it should clear but will depend on wheel design for example if a concave design the spokes might not clear it

Yes you would be for sure and may even stick out lil past depending on what size tire you went with. I have a 8.5 +15 offset up front on 235/35 size tires. I wouldn't go lower than 245 size tire on a 9.5 wheel although there are plenty that do.

They will be stretched but will work. I have 255/35 on rear 9.5 and it's slightly stretched. Will def have to get fenders rolled with that width for sure

Can anyone help look at my rim/tire selection?

Hi, guys
I am having 04 sedan with stock 17x7 +45mm offset rim and 225/55/R17 tire, front and rear
Now I want to switch to 19' rims and I have two options:

1. stock 19' rims of a coupe: Front: 19x8 +30mm offset Rear: 19x8.5" +33mm offset, tires are 225\40Z\R19, 245\40Z\R19

2. aftermarket 19' rims: 19x9.5 with a +35 offset, tires are 245/35/R19, 235/30/R19

Two questions I have:
1. I did some research but seems no definite answer if it is safe to switch to a rim with different offset. Can I use these rims?
2. I checked the tire size and diameter should be fine, but not sure about the clearance to the suspension. Should I roll fenders and/or add spacer?

Need to make a decision today or tomorrow. Thanks a million!
