you should be able to run 225/40. running 225/35 would provide more clearance tho. 1is fenders are farely week un modified.

What would be a good compettive price to roll fenders? And that's just the fronts right not the rear?

You can not really roll the front fenders theres nothing really to roll its more of a pull in the front. The rears are what needs to be rolled flat theres a lip on the rear if you go look at it and feel it you will see. Typical rolls around Dallas are 50 a corner.
