Sedan fitment
I was wondering if someone can help me out with a wheel setup that I want to do. I plan on putting some 18x9.5 +35 wheels since I can't sell them I'll just put them on on my 05 6mt sedan. However I want to run 255 tires all around. If I use a 10-25mm spacer can I clear the steering knuckle in the front? I don't mind rolling or pulling my fenders, but with just the wheel on by itself It barley scrapes the steering knuckle. And will the rear have a enough clearance? There's only about 1mm of space between the back of the wheel and the steering knuckle. I also plan on dropping the car about 1"-2"in all around too with tein coilovers. Will all of this work or will this become to dangerous? Thank you.

Man thank you for replying, yeah that's what I was thinking, I just want to make sure that the new tires will clear the steering knuckle. I guess I'll try a 5mm spacer then at hope for the best. Thanks again

I will respectfully disagree, there are hundreds of people (or more) on this forum and a lot more out in the real world that will agree spacers are perfectly safe if they're quality pieces. I personally wouldn't run anything bigger than a 25mm though, just personal preference not out of fear that bigger spacers could create some sort of failure.

Man oh man, don't get me started on Ichiba crap. Back in the day I had 4 separate Ichiba products fail on me and there are tons of threads documenting Ichiba fails. Here is a great one to read with links to others in it.
