Hey all, looking to run 245 or 255 wide tires on the 527's with Eibach Sportlines (1.4" drop) without rubbing (functional driving). What would be my best bet to be as flush with the fenders as possible, with minimal (if any) poke and no rub?

I was originally looking at the 18x8.75 but I'm now thinking 17's. Would a 17x8.25 +35 wrapped in 245 or 255 be flush with the front fender? I figure I can always throw a spacer on the rear, but can't unpoke the front if the offset is too aggressive. I don't have any camber bolts yet; will I need any?

Thanks.
