First, thanks to 2point0 for fielding many of the questions lately.
Been busy with work so haven't been able to contribute much.

As for your wheels, yes you will need a spacer. I would say about 15mm depending on your camber settings. You'll want about -2 camber all around +/-. Effective offset after your spacer will be +33.

If you have an option of changing your wheels (that's a really high offset, I'd go for a +35 to +33 with that wheel width. And you'll need to get the camber just right for a wide wheel like that especially if you want to run a 255 tire.

I'll only be on sportlines though.

Can anyone comment on whether or not Ill need spacers to clear the stock struts? I've read a 3-5mm spacer would do...Realistically, would I need a 10mm spacer?

I'd like to be prepared and have them ordered up by the time the wheels are here. Unless I don't even need them at all?
