17x9 seems pretty wide, prepare for scrubbing imo.
Lels full yolo, waiting on a new bumper so i really didnt mind the plate position, as for the wheels the fronts are what I'm worried about but I might go for a lower tyre profile anyway

What's the offset of them will be the big factor. Tyres too of course.

235/45/17 all round wrapped on a 17 x 9 wheel (+22) was advised to go 215 on the front, but haven't done a wheel alignment so we will see properly in a few weeks time

Its probably the stepper motor. The piece located just under the throttle body. Might need a new one.

Ah, same specs as mine used to be. ;) expect a bit of scrub on the inside if you haven't whacked the seam there. They look great though.
