Yeah it depends on the wheels. I had a set of Work XD9s that were had 10mm taken off, bringing the offset from +25 to +35

Well, when i first got my wheels they were sticking out like crazy. So i decided to stretch my tires and get the camber kits. After i stretched the tires and the camber kits install, all i did is roll and pull my fender. Never rubs after that

Good luck with your stuff (:

Your offsets are too aggressive. You would have to get smaller tires and hopefully you're dropped.
