I asked them about it and they said they didnt have any clearance issues with the coilovers installed. They are running 235/40/18.
You're never going to fit with stock suspension without a spacer, especially when you drop and add camber. For reference, my wheels I just installed, at stock height, stock camber there is 3mm of clearance from perch to wheel/tire. This is on a 18x9 +42 with 245/35/18. Now your setup will be 9mm further in than mine, so interfering 6mm at stock height. Now when you lower and add camber you are likely interfering closer to 10-15mm. Hope that helps. Coilovers are the way to go if you are dead set on those wheels. If Jive could measure his clearance it will be a good indication of what tire size you can run. |
This guy hit it right on the head. If you want to run those wheels with no spacer than you will need coilovers. Otherwise you will probably need at least a 5mm spacer or so to get what I would call a comfortable amount of strut tower clearance.
