Default rpf1 question beaten to death

been searching all over the net and on ski.com, s2000.com , youtube, etc. with no luck.

the question is:

does rpf1 17x9 45+mm on hankook ventus rs3 255/40/17 square with about a .75" drop require flaring the fenders? I already know it will need a roll, but I really do not want to flare/pull anything fenders.

Also, is it the front of the rear fenders that need more modification? If i were to roll the fenders, my plans are to clean up the inside really well first removing all the dirt, heat the fender and roll with a fender roller to about a 45 degree. then place a huge bead of silicon caulk all alone the V-shape valley inside and before it finishes curing, roll the rest of the fender to a flush edge. i assume the caulk will fill in any avoids to prevent water from seeping in. use a wet finger to smooth out the caulk where it oozes out. then wheel well spray the edge.

Just a good Roll.
Front fender tab area trim, roll fenders, push liners behind fender.
Rear, rear bumper tab relocate and trim, and roll.
No big deal.

No you wont need flare, rears a minor roll, fronts need a good roll.

I rolled my fronts and had to get adjustable ball joints to get to -3° of camber. Luckily, I needed that much camber anyway. But my car is lower than yours. Depending on your spring rate, you may be fine with just a roll.

My rears are rolled and have the bumper tab relocated. The stock adjusters got me enough camber....around -3.1ish°. Again, luckily, this is what I wanted. Everything always works out for me. Im #1.

17x9 +45 ADVAN RG2. 255/40 hankook RS3. Not too too satisfied with the RS3, though.
