Default Anyone have 17x8.5 et30 on newage

Is anyone running the above size on there newage? If so what size tyres do you run and is there any arch mods needed or will they fit without rubbing issues etc?

If you can stiffen up the rears a little that would help, mine was on bilstein b14 had no issues only changed as I preferred 17's to 18's
