The wheels are 17x9 for F/R and they are 35+ offsets. What would be the

tires size to make the rear and front to sit flush with the fenders and rear

quarter? THanks much guys

It won't really be flush, unless you get a lower offset, or a spacer.

for the fronts you'll probably need a 15-20mm spacer. depends on what camber and if you wanna roll.u can fit anywhere from a 225-245 pretty easily.

flush tires with the fenders is weak. and thoes front wheels are gonna need a spacer to clear the shock unless you run positive camber.

Well, what rims are you getting?

Go with a 17x9 with a +12 for the rear

What suspension are you running?

The offset of that rim depends on the width. Looks like a 17x10 with a +12 offset

The fender is also rolled and it has negative camber. I would guess... a 17x10 also with a stretched tire.-Alex

i think that red car really needs wider fenders... not a fan of pull.

if you really... wanna make it look like that just get any wide wheels x9-x10 or so with low offset with +15 or lower.

if it sticks out past the fender then pull your fenders.... or "add more neg camber"
