17x8.5 with et35

[SG_M3]

I'm looking at a set of 17x8.5 et35 with 235/40 17 R comps on them, how will these fit? I know I will need to roll the rear fenders, but is the offset too low for a good fit? Would I be able to run 255 R comps later on? Or will they not fit.

I have this same size/offset wheel and tire size for auto-x. No rubbing and no fender rolling was necessary. I don't know about 255's though, as i haven't ever tried them.

I would think you would need to run more negative camber and probably roll the fender lip. I have seen people run the 255/40R17 on the car.
