Default what mod to the fender if run 9.5 22mm offset and 10.5 22mm?

Hi, question to those who ran the aggressive offset? I am planning to get TE 37 SL the specs 19x9.5 22+ and 19x10.5 22+ , now my rear fender rolled, but not the front, and I am on F-sport suspension, if i am going with that specs what would I have to do like run stretch tires, and negative camber ect..... please advice thanks

quite a bit of work i'd think. fender tab mod in front for sure, roll front fenders. then i'd run 225/35 in the front and 245/35 or 265/30 in the rear. i'd also get the spc ball joints for the front (i think thats what it is) and pull/shave your rear fenders while running the megan camber arms. i've never run rims this aggressive but there are a lot who have so hopefully they'll chime in soon

I was running 19x9 +11 up front and I never ended up getting it to work properly (while stanced)... I was always rubbing that damn fender tab. My current rears are 19x10 +32 and I'm super flush (I wouldn't go anymore aggressive).

For your fronts, you're going to need the fender tab trimmed and fenders rolled, with stretched tires. Rears are going to require roll/pull/shave with some camber adjustment (and stretched as well).

Super aggressive specs. If you are able to pull it off, I demand pics! Good luck.

I run 18x9.5 and 18X10.5 +22. I run 225/40 F and 255/40 R. I have rolled and pulled all around. Shaved tabs front and rear, I run about -3.35 rear and not sure what the camber is up front. I am dropped on megan ez's set full stiff all around. I rub on dips. The rear only seems to rub on the passenger side where the bumper meets the quarter panel. I can't figure out why it does and the drivers side doesn't. But anyways, it can be done with the right amount of work.

there is a "will these wheel fit" thread, and it's covered in there.

and since those sizes are super-popular (courtesy of varrstoen), you probably could've found the answer in the first few pages.

as nice as the TE-37 SL's are, given your proposed wheel specs and ride height, it will look awkward with quite a bit of poke.

I run a 18x10.5 +10 in the rear with just shaved fenders. My fronts were pulled but my bumper is out of place due to rubbing the tab and being popped outta place from snaking ramps lol.

I have those exact specs and you're going to have to roll both your front and rear fenders a bit, shave the rear fender, relocate the bumper tab in the front and say goodbye to any fender liner you may still have.
