Anyone running 17x8" et35 - 38 front wheels, 215 x 40 tyres and coilovers?

Do you have any rubbing issues?

I've got et35 front wheels and have Tein SuperStreet Coilvers - and also some HSD coilovers that I could run instead.

Trying to get an idea of any troubles I may encounter if this rain ever clears up!

I test-fitted 8.5J et30s on mine and they didn't rub mate, don't know if that's any use to you!

Hi
I'm running ET35 8J rims with 215 40 17 tires and coilovers, they didn't rub but, there was only a few mm clearance, so i fitted 5mm spacers to make sure.

[Rob]

Thanks - I was planning on slipping on some 3mm spacers that a friend gave me, making the wheels sit at 32mm offset.....

Hi
Should fit no problems with 3mm spacers then, 5mm rubs on the arch liner over severe bumps sometimes

[alan_uk]

right mate got the wheel on today

8jx17" et38 with 215/40/17 and needed a 5mm spacer as it rubbed on the strut and was jammed up against it

thats with tein super street coilovers mate

Yep my old Dotz Mugellos in 17 x 8 guise rubbed against my Tein SuperStreets on the front. 3mm spacer sorted it.

Awesome fellas - thank you
