you will have to have springs like bricks to stop contact with the fender in stock form. running 205/50/15s on 15x7s I actually hit my front bumper where it meets the fender under load with 7kg springs in the front. the fenders have been rolled so i'm good there but with the lc i've broken the inner fender liner from lowering the car to much with too much tire.

anything is doable but it will take some effort
if you wanted to do it right you could cut the fender out and install flares like something from a g60 vw to get everything to fit and look right. I think it looks bad ass when done right but the whole tire stretch thing looks cool but isn't the safest thing in the world if your driving your car every day.

i'm going to go a similar route but its to fit wider/shorter rubber for autoxing. I'm going to go with a 13x8 with either a 225/45/13 or a 215/50/13

this is a new trend in the street prepared classes of scca solo2 275/35/15 hoosiers this is a fsp focus with that tire on custom 15x8.5 kodiak wheels
