Rim and brake question 05 coupe

With my new 05 coupe on its way I was wondering if I am going to need spacers with my 20 inch Axis Mod 7 Rims. The front rim has a 37 offset. I know the front brake isnt as large as the brembo but I am not 100% sure. Can anyone help ????

How wide are the wheels?

38mm is about as low as you can go without the wheel/tire sticking out beyond the fender.

Oh..

To give you an idea these are my 18x8.5 wheels with a 45mm offset on an 05 Sedan. My wheels have 8mm more clearance than a 37mm offset and they look very flush with the fenders.

You will 100% not need spacers!

With a 37mm offset?

That would stick out 14mm (or just over a half an inch) further than my wheels, and they are very close to being flush with the fenders.

I think you need to look for a higher offset to look right on the sedan using 9" wide fronts. Most likely a 45mm to 50mm.
