you might be able to get away with +19 front, and +17 rear without rolling fenders

Don't roll.....its messy, risky, and cheap work IMO. Do it the best way, have your fenders get a custom clean cut

if your at stock height you wont rub...but if your dropping it i suggest rolling fenders so u can keep your rear camber at spec
**depending on drop. 1" you'll be good lower need more neg camber. but thats a fairly common size. you should be fine im running +12 on a 10.5 wheel in the rear. and im dropped 1.2" in the back. havent touched my camber but i have my fenders rolled. and im good.

also fender rolling is a common thing. if u get it done right no worries. and you cant see anything on the outside of the car after. you wouldnt be able to tell if its done unless you touch it underneath with ur hand.

I think you'll be fine but it's REALLY close - it's like borderline having to roll your fenders

thats basically my setup it will be real close but you'll probably need to roll them. its no big deal and you cant tell from the outside....just get it done proper

^Thanks for the help guys.

AVmagneticZ, did you have any problem on the front at 19x10 +30? I guess i'm going to put back my stock springs for now until i found someone local that can do it. I shouldn't have any problems on stock height running those widths and offset right? I just wanna make sure

well i am 9.5 and +12 in the front so no i didnt but since u have a wider tire i dont know how that will be rubbing on the inside while turning, cause mine cuts it close. but at stock height without ur fenders rolled you might rubb since there might not be enuf neg camber and that half inch lip will help alot once rolled

why not just wait, keep your stock rims for now bc they look nicer anyway and get nicer looking wheels later on?
