    15x8 ET12...Lots Of Rubbing?

    How would 15x8 ET12 wheels fit? Lots of rubbing? Not much rubbing? Car is lowered on Turner J-Stock suspension...

    You will have problems with the fenders unless they are rolled and you use a 215 width tire. My 225s barely fit with et20 8in width.

      195/205 tires, rolled fenders. Anything else is unreasonable.

        Well that sucks. I'm running 225's on my 15x7 ET30 Team Dynamics. I wanted to be able to use a 245 if possible.

              Cheades (coilovers and S50..)seemed to be tearing up at auto-x with 225/50 r14 RA-1 last weekend. 225 is plenty of tire. Just modulate the gas more.

                I ran my 15x8 et20 Rotas with 225's with 8mm spacers in front (effective offset would be et12) and 15mm in the backs (et5) for a while. No rubbing, but my fenders are rolled to the max and I run 3.5 degrees neg camber up front and 2.5 in the back.

                Go ahead and try it. What wheels are you thinking of?

                  Don't listen to this nut. It's only because of his insane camber, on a slammed car with stock mounts even non-spaced Rotas require serious fender rolling.
