Hope you're running spacers front AND rear. 15mm doesn't really cut it though...you need 25mm.

15mm brings them right out even with the fender without rubbing...in the rear its real close...im running a pretty wide tire (275) and i get a lil rub every once in a while

Oh, thought you were running stock sized tires. So you're running a 275 on an 8" wheel? That's smart...lol.

rears are 8.5...works out pretty well...the tires are just about even with the side of the rim, no stretching the tires at all

this is the best pic i can find of the 275/40/18 T-1R's and 15mm spacers...the tires are a little wide for the rim but not bad at all..i dident feel any difference when driving except that i finally get traction...

Looks like someone took a black sharpie to your license plate. (Sorry, I got nothing useful to say)

Toyo T1R's have a smaller sidewall and are narrower than many tires in the same sizes. Still, it seems to be bulging out quite a bit. Not a good move imo.

the ing's kit doesn't look too bad but you need to get the lip painted also.

Mustang was meh.

RX7 was amazing (That kit alone is like $12K). Too bad the RX8 never lived up to the 7.
