Rolling of the fenders?
#1
Hey guys, looking for some help here situation is as follows:

My car stock sits on 18x7 wheels with a +46 offset. Tires are 215/45/18. Seeing as how i'm currently sitting on winters i've decided i'd leave the stockers for winter duty and buy myself a whole new set of wheels + tires.

I was able to find someone selling some Enkeis that are 18x8.5 with a +35 offset. Tires are Sumitomo's HTR III's, 235/40/18.

Issues here is, through the Ralliart forum, i was able to determine that with that wheel it should fit, but i MAY or may not experience some bumpage when driving hard or hitting a bump in the rear wheels. So that brings me to my question, how much would i most probably have to roll the fender if i do have an issue, and how noticeable of a change is it from the outside?

Thanks in advance.

Are your fenders the same as the Evo X? If so, those should fit fine with no rolling. The new evo body style can fit some wide setups

My rear fenders are rolled. You can't tell that they are unless you look inside the wheel well or run your hand along the wheel arch.
