1/4" Spacer only for the fronts. Unfortunately, CCW doesn't machine a face in this wheel style that will clear OEM Brembos

actually the rears weigh 18.6 lbs not 21 in 10.5 for the rpf1s..not trying to make this a comparison thread between the two but a couple of lbs difference on each side makes a big difference. I don't track my car but from an avid tracker like yourself, switching to heavier wheels is apparantly the thing to do

Wrong. Enkei.com states 19.7lbs for 18x10.5 +15mm, but who is counting, right? Honestly, 1.3lbs difference? I'd trade that any day to go wider for more traction....and to NOT own a dime-a-dozen set of wheels.

Yes. Surprisingly, the rear tires clear by 1-2mm. I had to pull out the rear fenders quite a bit with a Eastwood fender roller. In fact, in certain angles, the rear fenders noticeably curve out more than stock
