Spot on! It's almost 3". Also, your Michelin looks really good on that rear! Doesn't look stretched at all compared to a Hankook or Falken tire!

Hi Lawrence, can I double check- the spacers (5 mm) are compulsory for vibration purposes- that would drop the offset from 48 down to 43 mm in the rears?

I would strongly advise that you use the spacers.

I bought these rims last week and they're sweet! I was going to get pics last weekend but it rained on me

I'm running Bridgestone Potenza RE760s 225/40f 255/35r and they fit perfectly. I put the rears on w/o the spacers and the 48 offset was spot on for not requiring a fender roll. With spacers on its flush with the fender so dropping the car even 1in will require a slight roll but it would totally be worth it.

Anyway overall I'm happy with the purchase

keeps us update on how it runs without spacers... I don't quite get why it requires spacers to prevent vibration in the first place... but oh well, I slightly rolled and pulled my fenders to prevent the rub on a stock suspension.

Look forward to receiving these rims! BUT I paid 2 weeks ago and still don't have a tracking number or idea as to where they are. Lawrence?

I had a tiny bit of rub in the rear on stock suspension with the spacer, but your experiences may vary based on the tires you decide to run. I've got 255 Michelin Pilot Super Sports. Nothing that a very slight roll/pull can't take care of.

I highly recommend these rims if you're after the LM look... I've been told that people have been stopping by my car in the parking garage at work to take pictures

I ran it w/o spacers for a few days then all of a sudden I got a lot of vibration so put the spacers on and it was fine...I have no explanation for that. I also ordered 35mm lug bolts for the rear and swapped the stock ones out today. I didn't feel like there was enough thread on the stockers.

With spacers on M-Sport suspension there is no rubbing. If I decide to drop more than 1/2in I'm sure it will rub.

Also remember when you go with a wider tire it becomes slightly taller removing some of the fender gap. When I had put the 225/255's on my stock rims it closed the gap a little over 1/4in. With the new rims the gap is the same.
