Default will these wheels fit without fender mod?

Specs:
18×9JJ Offset +22
18×10JJ Offset +22

Will wheels with these specs fit the 2nd gen GS3 without fender modifications? How will the fit be, close to flush with the fenders?

depends on the tire sizes. typically the tires rub, not the wheels.

You're going to need to stretch some tires on there. Maybe some 245's in the back would do it.

I don't have a gs300 yet but I saw these wheels for sale. I'd like avg width tires, not really into the stretched look. I'd actually like a bit higher side profile for a less rough ride. Can't won't be too low, probably 1.25-1.5" lowered. Just looking for a comfortable daily driver. So these will probably rub with avg size tires?
