    Getting ready to finally lower my car...

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Ill be putting coilovers on in about 2 weeks and plan on dropping it 2 to 3 inches. But I was wondering if i will need spacers to clear my tires from the inner wall. I bought 17x7.5 b6 sport wheels off of my friend with 235/45 tires. I know thats a little bigger than I should have but i needed tires quick and it was a good deal. I believe the offset of the wheel is 43. I heard the fronts should be alright, but the rears would rub...Is that true? And Would i be able to just space the rears 15mm and be fine? Thanks in advance.

    Yea I think you should be fine as well, with those width tires on those wheels.

    Lets see some before & after pics! I was so happy when I finally got rid of my 4x4 stance.
