with 55 et offset on the front, he "could' get by with a 7mm spacer. The rears would take considerably more. It's not getting them to fit inside the fenders, it's getting the inside of the wheels to fit, without hitting the suspensiopn, brakes etc.

"But at THAT offset listed, the rears should be rubbing on the inside.....not the outside. Unless those 255's are just barely sliding by, which of course with any rear sag via weight or acceleration he'll know soon enough. "

Your stock wheel offset is what, 23 or 26et. That is A LOT of area.

I have 16/7 phones over 928S4 calipers. They are the same as the turbo S calipers right?

Hell Jason, I'm all for it. If you do it and it works, super. That lets others know what they might be able to do as well.

So you are running no spacers, wide body, fender rolling.... nothing with these 9" wide wheels... front or rear?

What size tires on all 4 corners?
