If you're talking about the rear.
There is no difference in rear fender design between the de and hr. A very mild roll will clear. This may seem counter intuitive but a 10.5 +15 will cause the 255/40 tire to stretch a bit giving it more clearance than the 9.5. I've owned both 255/40 on 9.5 and 10.5 rpf1s and pf01s.

Kind of did, kind of didn't more toying around tonight.

And I drove it, just cause I can.

Finally received the J-Spec Clear Side Markers I ordered from thezstore over 6 weeks ago! Might be installing them this evening. My dilemma...? My rear ones are tinted/smoked (came like that when i purchased the car) now I can't decide whether to tint the front ones to match, replace the rears with clear ones, or just leave rears as-is and install clears up front (don't know if that would look retarded though). Any suggestions?

Either clear in the back or tint up front. Just to have a sync flow. I'll admit I bought the clear back to get rid of the frosted look.

Ok but which way should i go? Here is how the rear sits now

I'm afraid that if i go that dark in the front it won't look right, on the other hand I'm so used to seeing the tinted rear that i feel like clears would just stand out too much and look too stock.

Do you have adjustable camber arms? Adjust the camber a little and it will fit! Don't roll the fronts. When people do that it messes up the fender lines and also bows out the fender. Doesn't look right at all.

Even on my rear rolls I don't think the fenders look as good as they did before the roll.

There is no flow, they're never viewable at the same time (for the most part) so just leave them and see how they look, i think you'll find it'll work out, esp with being a dark car.
