u might need 10mm ~ 20mm spacers. the wheels will be tucked in behind the fenders, even further than stock 162's.

Yeah, if not for the fact that it will likely be way too close to the strut side, it probably would look goofy without the spacers.

I'd go with a 10mm spacer MINIMUM. Otherwise it'll look a bit tucked, and you might rub... but I guess that depends on what size tire you throw on there too.

thanks for all the input. if i do get them, 265/30 tires will be going on.

you should be able to do 20mm spacers without rubbing. I'm running 19x9.5 et22 & 265/30/19 tires with no rubbing. Not dropped yet though, just OEM sport suspension. But your wheel specs show that your wheels will be extended 15mm using the 20mm spacers. My et22 extend 28mm, so u should still be OK with a conservative drop.

personally, i would avoid spacers altogether and get wheels with a lower offset to begin with.

i agree you need to at least do a 10mm spacer. I'd do 20mm. I am running a 19x9.5 with a 20et. Your wheel with a 48 will be really tucked in.

15mm to look okay (same as 9.5", 39mm)...20mm will look the best (same as 9.5", 34mm).
