True they are more narrow but only by a half inch. You can still use the same 245 front and 275 rear rubber without stretching so.....
Not only that but if you look at a bone stock 370 like mine here you'll notice that the stock sport wheels aren't sitting flush with the fender to begin with. Now I'm going from a stock offset in the rear (I believe it's +30?) to an offset of +25 will have it sitting just about flush with the fender if not back in the stock postion. I actually think it will improve the look over stock.
I know that it may look desirable to get as much meat as you can squeeze into a wheel well but what you gain in grip is countered by added weight and drag. Frankly, I don't think you'll even notice any difference whatsoever from behind the car.
But.. there's only ONE way to find out right??  I know I know.. working on it...
