It's the standard offset for our cars +42 I think. I'll have to check my paperwork. Yes the 255's rub. I've had to do a lot of rolling so far. I tried loading up 4 people last night to go to dinner and couldn't make it out of the driveway. | |

| Not Ranked : 0 score He may have a spacer up front to clear the struts. There's only a few mm between the inside lip and the suspension. The spokes are also very close to the calipers. Sent from my GS4 using Taptalk |

| Not Ranked : 0 score +35 will bring you further away from the struts, but I'm not sure about the calipers. I believe the lower offset would simply push the rim lip out further, not change the way the spokes are oriented on the wheel studs/calipers. (The angle of wheel spokes likely doesn't change) Sent from my GS4 using Taptalk |

| Not Ranked : 0 score I previously had Bilsteins, which also needed the spacer. I'm not sure about stock, I've never tried to fit them with the stock setup. 5mm spacers can be had for cheap on ebay.
