I would have to agree w/ this as I use 18x8.5 et32 SSR Type C RS w/ 245/40/18 Potenza's, the tires are just shy inside of the fender line. planning to change tires to 255/40/18 in a couple of weeks.

I just ordered some 18x9 et38 going to run 255/40r18 all around.
Will 10mm spacers be needed (all around) And where do you guys get them at?

You get these wheels yet? Any pics? Need spacers?

My apex 18x9 et42 required at least a 3mm spacer up front to clear 255/40 AS+3'a. My 255/35 dunlops required no spacers. The AS+# is a beefy tire.

No the wheels haven't shown up yet (haven't even been shipped yet), but I was able to score some bms 10mm and 15mm spacers as well .......wheels are 18x9 et38
Will report back once the wheels are in and on.......
