225/45/17 on coilovers Fitment?

Hey guys I picked up some super nice Enkei wheels from a local guy who rolled his car in the snow (they were his summer wheels) and pick up the wheels super cheap. I know Theyll fit I just dont know if theyll fit with my plans :/

OK so their Enkei EKM3, 17x7, offset 45, with a 225/45/17 Tire. I saw the same wheels on tireracks website and it said they will fit the ralliart, but the recommended tire was 215/45/17. Also I just ordered some megan racing coilovers and hope to lower the car a decent amount, its still a daily so not slammed, but still lower as much as I can. Will this set up work if I lower? Or will my fenders need to be rolled? Im fine with rolling the fenders I just wanna get a second opinion.

Thanks Guys.

I have 215/45/17 on Swifts and it rubs. Definitely there will be clearance issues with 225 if you lower.

I'm on 17x7.5+45 and am slammed on coils and I run a 225/40/17. I rub when I hit bumps of course also I have no fender liners lol, but other then that no issues at all. now you will need someone who knows how to align lowered cars to align yours so it works good. I think I run -1.0 degree of camber in the front.
