    Looking to get a set of IE3 springs with bilstein Sport shocks, combined with a set of trm c1 wheels 15x8 offset 20, and tires 225/50/15. From what I have seen other people have done this, but will I need rolling or pulling of the fenders to clear without rubbing?

    Hi!

    I bought some BBS RS's in 16x8.5 et20 and 16x9 et8. I have 195/45 front and 205/45 rear tyres.

    The car will be on bags soon and I'm just wondering what size spacers i should get in order to get the wheels close to lip to fender when aired out.
    Thinking of getting 20mm front and 5-10mm rear.

    using e30m3 5 lug hubs if it makes any difference.

    Thanks! :)

    So if I wanted to get close to flush without rolling what would you use? could I go front and rear?

    10 front and 5 rear for my 225? could I go 10mm and 8mm?

    Rears fit GREAT, couldnt be more perfect. However the fronts stick out a good amount from the fender AND they are rubbing the struts.

    Going to get 5mm spacers and extended bolts. See if it at least fixes the clearance issues. i think a lower profile tire will be more useful as well, thinking a 45 or 40 instead of the 50mm.

    I think it's going to look pretty terrible sticking out 5mm more up front
    12-15mm front spacers and 205/45 tires all around. It'll poke without camber plates and not match the rear at all, though.

    If not what can I do to run 16x8s?
    No, 205/45 is necessary for clearance.
