does anybody know if these will fit on the front with a 245/40R17 and -4.5 degrees of camber? (1.3 on the strut top and 3 on the lower bolt)

That looks awesome. How much did you lower it and what camber are you running?

Would a set of these wheels with Mich. PSS 245/40/17's weigh less than the stock wheel and tire combo?

Actually, they're 22's.
They probably look bigger because I dunno.

I think black wheels look bigger because they blend in with the tire color.. I was looking at my rota titan 17's yesterday and thought they looked huge from a distance.

is 245 the undisputed perfect tire size? Ideally I want to run 235's, but I don't want the 17x8 rpf1's (I dont like the spokes), but I also don't want a stretched tire. Do I just have to suck it up and go with 245s?

225/45/17 is +1.6% difference 235/40R17 is -0.8% difference 245/40/17 is +.4% difference(which is why you see so many people run them) according to this http://tire-size-conversion.com/tire-size-calculator/ also there is a very good selection at 245/40/17, 235/40/17 not so much. a quick search on tire rack 235 gave me 12 results, 245 gave me 64. I am sure you can make either work but diameter + availability pushes people towards the 245. I think 235 on an 18" wheel are much more available
