I have the OEM sport suspension with VMR V718 19x9.5 ET 22 in the rear (275-30-19 tires). Anyone manage to use 12 mm spacers without rubbing or should I play it safe with 10 mm??? I did the old school measurement with a piece of tape (vertically) and a straight edge (horizontally). Just by eyeballing it looks like 15 mm is flush with the fender.

do you have the wheels on your car already?

Lets see some pics... side shots and along the body to see how that 22mm looks in the rear

I am running a 19X11 +25 in the rear with a 285/30R19 and have a bit of room. You'll be fine with a 12mm spacer.
