I've poked around quiet a bit in this thread and others but what is the largest width tire I could fit on a 17x10 +35? I'm not sure how low my drop is (coilovers) but from the fender well to the floor is 26". I'd roll the fenders or do pretty much anything to get a 275 to fit without rubbing. I'm just not sure if it's possible.
FYI - this would be for a track only set up.

A 275 on a 17x10 +35 is easily possible, especially if you keep the tire profile low (which you will most likely want, considering they're a track setup). I'll let others chime in with details...

ok so if im doing the 18x9+30 with a 265/35/18 and id most likely need a roll would it save needing the roll to go 255/35/18 also where about will the wheels sit front and back is aspect to the fenders?

Why is everyone afraid to roll their fenders? Super easy/inexpensive and allows a much better fitment. Look at WVBoosted8 to see how it fits. His is 18x9 +29 with 255/35. Needed a roll, but it should have been close to not needing one.

Sure,
That's 17x10 +38 with either 275/45 or 275/40 NT05's. 17x10 +35 is a mere 3mm, not a huge difference! 275/35/18 would be optimal for track use, more clearance and better gearing. Go check out the enkei thread, the owner posted in there on the second to last page.

Sweet. I've actually seen those pics but i dont think i knew the specs. As long as 35's should work i'm happy. 30's seem too low pro and i didn't want to have to do it just to keep from rubbing.
What is the car lowered on?
Thanks!

The tire will stick out the same as those running 255/45 on 17x10 +25 (Imput's setup).
A 275/40 would work, just PM Imput with what he needed to do to make it fit. You won't be as low as he is so you'll have less problems.
Are you going to be running r-comps or aggressive street tires?
