I don't know about clearance on the front with the FG's but I'd say you may need a 5mm spacer on the front, 3mm at minimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their +15 offset (is marked "Brembo OK"0 may be an option too but would this place too much stress on the wheel bearings? http://www.wolfwheel...ce/s36-bml.html I currently have front 18 x 8.5 +30 street wheels which clear easily on the outside (with 245's) and I think 9.5's will need 12mm more space either side at the same offset. With regard to clearance, do you think 18 X 9.5 +30 may hit some suspension components on the inside? Not sure I would be comfortable running a wheel spacer at the circuit.

Also If you concerned about brake clearance send them an email with the brake template attached and see if they can check the fitment. I run a 5mm wheel spacer on the front when I race never had any problem going through corners @160kmh, Also don't use alloy wheel nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
