Question about wide rims 9.5 and pro-kit

For those of you who have lowered cars... I have a question about clearence issues with front tires. I would like to go with all four tires 17x 9.5 wide with 5.5 backspacing so I can rotate w/ 275/40/17. I was considering the Ebach pro-kit as part of the combo.

Would/ will there be any clearance problems with the front tires since it will be lowered? Has anyone done it or ran into problems doing it?

(I have read posts were people have used 8" up front and 9.5 in back when lowered)

just look at the firehawk from slp.....

personally i sold my 9.5 front and 10.5 rears because they don't work however i know that if you don't lower the car much they can work just fine.

i now have 8 front 10 rear with it lowered right and i'm very happy with it.

good luck.
