Depends on your offsets but there's a huge chance they'll rub, especially up front you wont be able to turn ur wheels anymore

If you do the geometrical calculations and get your offsets right, you wont need spacers, try looking around see if anyone else bought those wheels, and check the offsets on their setup and have a look at their pix, you should be able to tell straight away

Also, when you get the chance Sam can you make sure to take a picture directly from the rear. Give it a little distance as I want to see what the actual stance of the car looks like.

Thanks! :-)
You got that.. Coming soon so stay tuned
Only problem is the shadow of the rear section of the car gives my camera phone a hard time, but will try to get a nice shot for you

Very nice! I usually don't like powder coated stocks but that flows well.

I think I might go with 15mm all around with my stock wheels. Your wheels sit very flush, but my back tire is almost tucked with the coils, so I'm sure I would rub if I go with 20mm in the back.

Sam, you're running stock tires, right? I just threw some 15mm Ichiba spacers on my rears, and it looks sooo much better!! Now I want to throw the same 15mm Ichiba's on the fronts, but I also have the Eibach Pro Kit and I want to bump up to 245s in the future. How close are you to rubbing with the 225s and 20mm spacers? I figure the 20mm increase in tire width would be comparable to a 10mm increase in spacer. If your 20mm's are close, then I probably can't go to 15mm w/ the 245 tires and not rub. Let me know!

Hey Andrew, yeah I am on stock tires.. No rubbing issues what so ever with 20's.. And yeah I think they can handle 245's on 15mm's

^^ Thanks! I just ordered another set of Ichiba 15mm bolt-on spacers (cause I'm too lazy to deal with lug-replacement). So I'll be running 15mm all-around, and eventually going to 245/275 after my stocks wear out.
