Good evening gents, was hoping for some advice to get my wheels fitting a bit better. I don't know what can be done differently with these wheel and tire size and stock fenders but I'd like a more flush look if possible. I'm open to rolling the fenders but would prefer not to pull them for these wheels. I don't know if that's necessary or even makes sense but I was hoping someone. Basically I was wondering if fitting some wheel spacers would be a possible solution? could point me in the right direction for measuring for some spacers? recommendations please.
Thanks in advance!
Currently
Front 17x7 +38 with 225/45-17
Back 17x9 +35 with 245/45-17

Hey man,
I just went out and poked a tape measurer against the widest tire sidewall to the fender wall:
About .5" in the front on both sides. About .4" on the drivers rear and .5" on the passengers rear.
If those are correct it looks like I could only run a 10mm even if rolling the inner fender lip.
Couple questions though, should I be measuring more towards the top of the sidewall rather than the widest point near the wheel lip?
Is it common to have a small difference side to side? (Maybe I should check the tires pressure?)
What size tires would I need to run 15mm?
Thanks so much for the response and have a great day!

Got the Ichiba V1 sets that come with the longer studs for a pretty good deal @ $80.00 for each set. I'm excited to see what it looks like, I know I'll have to roll the inner lip on the fenders but don't think I'll have to pull anything yet.
Thanks for the help getting sorted.
