Thanks for the answers, that what I thought. Question, do they have spacers in that size that have the studs built in? And am I gonna have to roll fenders after the spacers?

Lol I think out of all the people, you'd be the one to know that. So, if I don't get a spacer, is it gonna look retarded?

Yes, you will need a roll before you get the spacers.

I would slap 15mm spacers all around slightly pulled fenders , drop it and you will be set. 245/40 front 275/35, 40 sidewall rear might be a bit bulky.

Same tire height as stock, its proper. No VDC/TCS/ABS problems. Not everyone want to screw their car up with the lowrider (ittybittypokyouty) look. Some people do care about performace, handling, ride quality and looks. Hella flush has nothing to do with any of that.

I have 8.5 +25 with 20mm spacer, and 9.5 +20 with 10mm. Front is very flush, but the rear seem like it needs 15mm or even 20mm spacer, instead of 10mm

so you may want 5 or 10mm spacer in rear...

Put them on without spacer first, then decide whether or not you want a spacer and measure how far you want to move the wheel. Buy the corresponding spacer.
