The rear fenders will need to be rolled, since my 17x9s needed fender rolling. Anything below a +35 offset will clear the front calipers. For what it's worth, my 17x9 28mm had a ton of clearance room, these have a "GTR face"-ish concave to them and should have no issues. But If you are interested I could take some pics of the wheels minus tires this weekend on the car.

I'm not so worried about clearing the caliper. It really doesn't have to do with offset at all, but more wheel hub design and spoke clearance. I'm more worried it will massacre the fender.

Dentsport owes me a precision dent.

When I measured everything these appeared to fit provided the fenders were rolled. Again, these never got to see the road because I had originally intended to run these in SCCA ITE, instead I am running SCCA T2, where the max wheel size is 17x8. For what it's worth, a bunch of track guys are running 17x9.5s on the board. I guess anyone worried can ask them exactly what they had to do to get them to fit.

Fender folling isn't a big deal at all to me. I prefer shaving actually.
Kind of like the difference between shaving your GF's pubes, or waxing them.
