[xjeeper]

I have a set of 17x8.5" breyton visions on the front on my m3 and was wondering if i would be able to clear a set of 245/40/17's bf goodrich KD's (not the rice ones, the originak kd's) with my fk coilovers? i think the ofset is et38

With fenders flared, It should be possible.

With fenders flared, It should be possible.

Do the fenders need to be flared or just rolled? I'm thinking about going with 245s up front(when I get new wheels) and I was under the impression that they only needed a roll.

you should be able to get those to fit with some negative camber, it might not even need a roll. some people run 255s all around. depending on strut clearance you may need spacers

I run 18x8.5s w/245/35s at all corners. Eibachs which lower the car .8" no other mods. No rubbing.

If you look at my sig, I do it all with just a fender roll and my GC COs. I also use 95 M3 Alignment specs.

shouldnt be a problem. it should fit without even a spacer. it will depend on how low the front of your car is.

i've had 255 kumho mx's (now 255 ra1s for track use) on a 17x8.5 et40 kosei k1 with a 5mm spacer, and a 17x9 et45 with a 12mm spacer. no issues in front so far. just depends ont he offset of the wheel
