    Edit: Apparently I just have wheels that are different or my rotor "hat" is short so I'm just going to grind off some of the caliper.

    I dont have issues with my 18". But i am running S4 discs, that bring the caliper away from center.

    Thats very odd. I run the 111's 19x9.5 et40 rear and 19x8.5 et32 front. They clear my brakes by a good amount.

    Yeah exactly I don't understand the wheel is an ET32! At minimum I would need a ET35, but its scraping the back side of the wheel as you see in the picture. Would you mind taking a picture of your brake caliper clearance?

    The only part that is not stock, is my rotors that are power slots. I'm going to take off the wheel tomorrow and just check for the stamp inside the wheel to make sure its a ET 32.

    It must be your rotors then. The hats are probably a few mm thinner than mine. I am running Adam's rotors though.

    Stupid brakes.

    Thank you, that's an easy fix with 5mm spacers. I just hope the fender rolling will help, and I might have to raise my ride height.

    You know after zooming in your brakes the clearance, it looks like your wheel just barely scraps the caliper because the sticker has scratches on it.

    Nope thats just brake just. Trust me I have about 3-4mm of clearance. What tire size are you running?

    I think you should try grinding down your calipers a bit. Running em like that you could burn the paint off the edge of your fenders (some dont care tho, all about the show). I run 235/35/19 in the front and have zero rubbing. I just removed the 12 o'clock screw.

    Grinding down the calipers sounds like my best option. I just need to take off 1-2mm. I went with the 245 because I wanted to run the correct tire load rating. The 12 o'clock screw has been removed also.

    The mexipoke was an exageration, but if your question was : "What is Mexipoke?" Here's a picture:
