Are bearings that big of an issue with low offsets? I'm not talking about negative offsets tho. Just low around 20+.

the wear on the bearings will be the same whether its with spacers or a low offset wheel, it does the same thing

^ pshhh i know that =p. I meant, is wheel bearing wear a serious issue? Something that people should be worried about? Maybe wearing a part down that was made to last 200k miles in about 90k miles?

I measured from the wheel to the outside of my fender to be 1inch or 25mm. You think that would be to much?
Heres a picture of how my car is now.

^ you definitely need spacers. it doesn't matter if your wheels stick out, it looks better like that anyway!
