You quoted a 5 year old post.

Lots of info on here about 17x9 +45 rubbing. +42 only gives 3mm of clearance.


So, depending on what 255 tire you choose, you will need a spacer. Additionally, to really feel the grip of the fronts, you will need some negative camber.

I have 18x9 +42 with 245/35. So, same wheel offset and width. I first added a 5mm spacer. Then I added a 10mm spacer. Now I'm running a 12mm spacer. 10mm+ will give you room for a 255, room to install camber bolts, and add negative camber. Win-win!
