here you go

FRONTS
Width = 8", oem offset +57 effective offset for flush + 42mm, 15mm spacer

REARS

Width = 11", oem offset +67 effective offset + 52mm, 15mm spacer

basically the front and rears are about 15 mm away from the fender, you just have to push them back 15mm back out... i would NOT push beyond 15mm.

Possibly because the car is lowered and the camber, but if I wanted it absolutely flush I'd do 20mm in the front and 15mm in the rear.

I wouldn't want to mess with the rear bias, so I'm going to just go 15mm all around.....I think that makes the most sense.

Thanks
