The fronts are fine with 245/45/17 rubber. Drove the car yesterday and made some sharp turns. Fronts are not a problem. The rears I couldn't even get on at this point. I will have the adapters tomorrow, 30 mm H&R.
I have a picture at home on a different camera with the 17" magnesium wheels on the front and the stock salad shooters out back. When I pulled out of the garage even my parents said that was a great purchase because the car looks very different now.
Out back I will have a set of 18s.

I have 4 Rear wheels on my car, 1 inch spacers in the back brings them right out to the fender, rolled the lip and have never had a problem. the front wheels need a small spacer, 1/4 inch perhaps to bring them out and match the rear. i dont have the spacers on the front and they clear everything just fine. only issue ive ran into is tire changes, they are very hard on the finish.... FIND A GOOD SHOP FAMILIAR WITH EXPENSIVE WHEELS!!!!
