from my understanding...the spacer sizes you have mentioned will allow the wheels you have listed specs for to clear the brembos.

Now, this is someone who CLEARLY knew what they were doing and it still looks horrible cuz there is like 11inches of fender gap there. Imagine how bad yours will look because you have no clue what you are doing. Sell the kit. Do stock body. Get Varrs. Run 10mm spacers. Ride around in car. DONE!!!!


Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand, there's a VAR thread like 4 threads below this. How about you ask the manufacturer if their wheels will fit if you're unsure. Seems logical, right?

I did contact Navith from Vasstoen and he recommended me this:
The ES1 in:
19x9.5 +12 Fronts
19x11 +0 Rears

But the rears are on back order! Makes me want to get four 50mm spacers first!

Best advice i can give you, delete any search history on your computer for Vasstoen and forget about them. Never return to their site again. At least you can have some Florida Forged wheels made with the custom specs you need for that tacky kit.

BTW why would be run a pathetic little 9.5 up front on a widebody car. Stock body and i run a 10.5 up front, and i'm not running a poke and stretch setup either.

I don't think there is anyone more knowledgeable on the kit than bmccann101.

OP if you're going through all the trouble of running such an aggressive exterior widebody kit you should take the time to get the necessary wheels

No reason to cheap out with Varrstoens and still have to run spacers

I think the OP bought the car with the kit already attached. But, yeah. His wheel selection is horrible.

Thanks guys! Ahahah... no I already have the car for couple years with the Veilside kit just getting the wide fenders and gathering some opinions! And you know wide wheels are not available in Hong Kong that's why I am checking out sites and place in the US! I like those wide edge designs, very rare here in Hong Kong. Really Varrstoen is that bad? I don't track the car... give me more brands and models to choose from!!!

I personally wouldn't say varrs are bad, although they are replicas. I would say that they don't fit what you're looking for. They don't make wheels wide enough and aggressive enough to fit a widebody.

Yes people are harsh! One more question when I install the wide fenders should I get my bodyshop cut off the lower edge of the OEM fenders with wider tires? If I don't cut the edge will it be OK?
