Anyway, could you tell me what size spacers you used front and back. Sorry if you already mentioned it.
No spacers. They're 18x10.5 +15 all around.

Did you have to roll the fenders? Any clearance issues at all? My Z is stock height. I'd love to get some 10.5 wheels with 15mm offset and not have to do anything else.

Sorry to be a pest, but your wheel/tire setup looks great and seems very simple.

I only had to roll the rears. There was a tiny pull on the front and rear, but that was for my old VS-XX setup which was more aggressive. Right now, there is no rubbing at all. You should be fine with just a rear fender roll.

I live in South Carolina, not southern California.

I doubt you could find anybody around here that would even know what rolling a fender was.

Anyway, I may just stick with some 18x9.5 Enkeis with +15 with 275/40/18s. That way I might get by without any other mods. It won't look as good as yours but it should still be a significant improvement over stock.

Thanks again.

You can always get a body shop to trim the lip off, rather than roll it, too!

Some members here have done that without any issues. Just don't cut too much off. It's really two pieces of metal spot welded together or something like that. I'm sure you can find threads on the forum.
