Ok, looking at adding spacers to the back wheels. The inner lip of the guard has already been rolled (from factory). Ive got 18 inch wheels which are ET30. Looking at using 15mm spacers. I've measured the gap between the tyre and guard and it is exactly 15mm. Does this mean I need to flare a little bit of the rear guards? The car has been lowered on eibachs and #3pads

how wide are your wheels?

I have 18X8.5 et 35 but i spaced it out 15mm to bring down the offset to et20 lowered on h&r sports/bilstein sports NO pads no problem....

I have 21mm spacers on the rear with 18x9.5, you just need to trim the rear and bed the inside lip of the inside of the quarter panel up.
