what kind of rim is it? what size? and what offset? I am putting a 5mm h&r spacer on my front 19x8 +25 offset rims. This isnt to push it out, but so it willl clear the front brakes.

Hey,
I'm not sure if this helps you at all, but I just put 25MM on my rear stock rims.

If you can provide us with the wheel width and offset, we can assist you better. Just from the pictures...at least 15mm. Looks like even 30mm could bring it out flush.

That looks like a +45mm wheel for FF cars.

I would do 20mm and run 245 width tires for the front.

sen jen - yes, you are correct. Even if 5mm spacer if you can't get 7 full rotations
on the lugs when you tighten it down you're not completely safe. I wouldn't
track the car.
