fronts
easy

rear
you will either need the car to be higher than the tyres (will be very mexican)
lots of camber
or a flare

if you want to run those size tyres on the rear you will definatly need a flare on the gaurds

id chuck a 235/40 on the rear, and if the car has been lowered a bit, lil flare. and actually chuck a spacer on the front as it will look wier with the fronts so sunken in the gaurds and the rears sticking out so much

would super stretched tyres and heaps of camber work?

depends on how high your car is

if it is tucking tyre, with a 215/40 you might be lucky

its going to be very close

my s14 has rolled gaurds, my 17x9.5+15 just fit with alot of camber with a 235/45

the s14 has bigger gaurds so it will be ultra close with yours
