Minimum of 9.5 inch wide. Offset in the mid-30s to 40 is what I have experience with.

I have 34 offset in the rear fenders rolled slight trailing arm rub at times.
I run a 16mm spacer in the front to clear the coilover with the tire.
Don't know about stock struts.

You will be needing much more than a roll to get these to fit. Some run the hybrid lower control arms to eliminate the rub

Not for the faint of heart

Agreed. I have run that size and it took a lot of work to make them fit.

Great tire to use as well. I have many happy people on those, especially for the price.

Would work perfectly with fenders rolls. The front needs a bit of massaging though.
