Message	I am purchasing the Sportmax 962 Wheels +35mm offset in sizes 18x8.5 F and 18x9.5 R. I have a friend who can get me a deal on some good Michelin Pilot Sport SP2 tires but he only has the 245/40/18 F and 275/40/18 R. I've heard stories about how a 245/40 may be too big and eat your fender liner..and that a 275/40 may require rolling of the fenders. The car is not lowered yet but will be soon this summer. Not slammed by any means. Possibly 1-1/4 inches. Can anyone guide me, is this setup doable? Will I need to do anything to the car to make them fit?
