No issues, the front is tight, I could not go any wider. Rear is fine.

For you on wider rims, but stock tires I would not go over 15mm, that is just me.
nice, so what tires do you run pss? 15mm all around is what capn had in the pics you posted of his car?

also how is your front lowered, and is it lowered in the front only?

Michelins PSS 245/35/19 & 275/30/19
Eibach Springs FRONT only
H&R 15mm all around.

I believe Capn has same tire size / spacer combo, lowered on teins.

15 mm rear with swift springs. 20mm will most likely rub without a fender roll.

Awesome detailed picture, I appreciate it... would you have a pic of the front as well?

Also, do you suggest installing the rear springs or would just the fronts suffice and give it an even gap all around?

Install all 4 springs. It will sit just right. no rear sag whatsoever. Yes I am speaking from experience on my 2012.
