There is a chance of the bolts being too long, yes. Stock shank length is around 24mm. Buy bolts with a 28-32mm shank length and you will be good to go.

Car: 1987 E30 convertible
Suspension: JOM (I know) coilovers
Wheels purchased: 16 x 8 et 20 F
16 x 9 et 15 R
Fenders: stock (not rolled/pulled)
Tires: ?
Front: I've read a years worth of this thread and think you're going to tell me 205/45/16.
Rears: I believe you also say I can go 205/45 here too but that's a bit too stretched for my taste.
Can I run 215/45 without modifying fenders in the rear? What about 225/40?

How wide can I go for the wheels I want without rubbing or rolling my fender? I found some 15x8.5 that like but some people say that I would have to roll my fenders

17x8 et2 front
17x9 et6 rear
Can this be ran with 205/40 front and 215/45 or 215/40 rear, with a roll and pull? Will be lowered on coils, but not super low.
Same car
16x8 et5 front
16x6 et3 rear
Can 205/50 work on these with a similar roll and pull for the set above?
