this has been covered in OTHER threads, but the math is still the same.

easiest answer is to run OEM-sized tires (225/40-18 + 255/40-18).

Well right now I'm slammed to the floor on the stock wheels, but once i have my wheels on i will raise to the car to a reasonable height so running a 40 series tire is good

thanks!

Sorry wheel master, I guess sitting right on my fender line with my tires rubbing isn't aggressive enough for you. Next time I post I'll be sure to make sure my wheels are sitting outside my fenders like the pic below and seek your approval before I post.

Bought some wheels a while back. I was told they would fit over my stock calipers. Well they indeed do not fit. super close though. I don't want to run spacers as I'm already not to happy with the crazy offset. it already has to muck poke for my taste, but i was determined to get the wheels so i had to compromise a bit on the offset.

so is there another option instead of spacers? anyone know of some aftermarker thinner calipers that wont break the banK?
