I have some new wheels the fronts are 17x9 +12 and the rears are 17x9.5 +12.
I already have coilovers, and the car is not slammed to the ground, but it is lower than stock height.
I want to know what width tires to put on the front and back, I prefer to have the back tires wider than the front tires.
But I have not rolled my fenders, and I am not sure I am going to any time soon.
Please help

there is a "max tire/rubber" thread on here, search for it & it will help you a lot.
that being said, if you want max tire in front, you will need to roll - rear needs a roll/pull as well unless you run ridiculous camber.
You could run something like 235/40R17 & 245/40R17 w/ rolling and camber work.

i would go with a 215/235 stagger.
and unless your car is not lowered you will HAVE to roll, if not pull your fenders a bit to fit these wheels..
