got the wheels on, (ASA Revolution AS1) added 20mm spacers to make wheels/tires flush with fenders. added some tuner lugs. now just need to lower to make up for the wheel gap.

+28 offset with 20MM spacers, that looks pretty flush with the fenders. What is the stock offset?

You didn't roll the fenders yet? Are you only getting interference at steering lock?

@samatman - i definitely had to roll the fenders. the tein s. techs really lowered the front dramatically. junctions in the roads like a bridge overpass and i would hear rubbing. However, i haven't had interference at steering lock. I've also got underneath and with a wheel grinder, i notched things back a tad to ensure tire clearance. 215/40s are a tad wide with 20mm spacers... next set of tires i'll fit 205s and/or 195s.
