Volk CE28N's in 17x9.5 +15mm... Will they fit??

Just like the title says...

I am looking to put Volk CE28N's in 17x9.5 +15mm on my Evo. I want a crazy offset, but at the same time I want to know if they'll work. I dont care if I need new fenders, I just want to know if they'll clear my calipers, and if not what size spacer should I run??

Also does anyone have pics of this wheel (17x9.5 +15mm) on an evo? I dont expect any, but I figured I'd ask.

With that size fenders front/rear will be needed. Probably need spacer in front to get away from suspension also.

Depends on the suspension setup

No matter how hard you try a 265-35-18 isnt going to work on a 9.5jx17 et ANYthing.

However with ALOT of camber a 255-40-17 might work on an et15 9.5Jx17.

for the record, those Nams rear fenders in the link above look like they allow for alot more room than the Voltex rears, and a 10.5" wheels is a good clue too, plus that car is equipped with the nams suspension arms, which alllow for wider wheels as well.. something to consider before anyone tries to imitate their setup.

Most of the Nams suspension is available for purchase, so anyone looking to imitate the setup of the Nagisa CT9A, we will be able to help you out! . GarageHRS also makes wider suspension arms for those of you who are interested.
