Id recommend 12mm spacers in the rear. member vegastrashed had 166s back when he had his 545 with ET28, added 12mm spacers to bring the offset to ET16 and the wheels were flushed with the fenders. when I had my 128s I had 15mm spacers but the offset of the 128s in the rear were ET32. hope this helps
