Default 17x8 45 offset and 225/45 tires will this tuck on an EP3

Getting ready to order some Advan wheels in 17x8 45+ anyone know if this will tuck under the fenders?

Probably not. Depends on camber though. I know that my 16x7.5 with 45 offset, 215/40 Hoosiers stick out about 1/4" beyond the fender. Of course, I am at stock camber settings. Add a quarter inch for the extra half inch of width, and they will probably not tuck unless you add negative camber.

It really depends on how low you are dropped. Your offset is sufficient to not rub if you slam your ride.
