I've found a number of other forum members with the same exact sizes, lowered a bit so I'm confident this will all work.

The only issue I've read about is inside clearance when NOT running coilovers. The 45 offset sets the wheels inboard so no issues with fender rub (I gather, from researching for hours and hours on this forum.
Yes, curious to hear about it as well. +45 is a high offset on our cars, especially for 9.5" wheel. If you say others are running that setup, then you should be fine unless they are all running coilovers.

If you can measure the inboard clearance, that would help this thread.

And of course we want to see photos of your new shoes!
