17x8.5 et 15

[hakstern]

I’d like to run 17 x 8.5 et15. I’m
Planning on running 215/40/17’s but wanted to know how hard is this to achieve fitment? I don’t mind a slight roll. Would NOT want to pull/cut my fenders. Car is on bilsten b9’s and H&r lowering springs. E36 m3

17x8.5 et 15 with a 215/40 is not that aggressive. I would roll the rear fenders and not do anything up front. I have run more aggressive setups than 17x8.5 et 15 with unrolled/uncut front fenders. Of course suspension geometry, camber, etc, do play a factor and each car is different.
