They will sit the same. The 18x10 has a 3" lip so regardless of offset with a spacer you will have poke. I test fitted them with stock suspension and I looked like one of those slammed little pickup trucks with wheels past the fender! Now I'm running -4 up front and its perfect. Still rub at full lock but i didn't roll the fronts

How did you manage to get -4 up front?

If you are going to run a flat faced rim with no concave and a lip make sure to run a little smaller offset in the front to compensate for the spacer needed up front to clear the brembos. I had to do that on my bbs' and had to get the spacers with the studs built in. If you have extended studs already you'll be ok, just always to test fitting and small drives to make sure nothing is rubbing on the calipers or hitting the inner shock towers.

Most use spacers to clear the brake calipers. The wheel/tire you choose may or may not interfere with the brake calipers, struts, springs, spring perches, fenders, fender liner, wire harness, or rear trailing arm. You will need to test fit and find out. Most wheels do not clear the front brake calipers on our cars. Buying rims with lower offsets will not guarantee the wheels/tires will clear anything unless someone has done the test fitting before you.

BTW. Pic thread! Yay, finally got sorta decent pics. Still want more low... . ..

Have anyone tired running +0 in the rear on 521's aswell?
Ive only seen +0 front and +17 rear so far..
It looks considerably better running the same track width in front and rear tbh.. Even though it's not as easy to see when running a lot of neg camber..

I know my car looks crap with the setup I got now from the previous owner.. 25mm spacer up front, no spacer rear on 17x8.5 et unknown.. But no fitment what so ever in the front and in the rear its nowhere near the fender

Never torn a boot, but i definatly rubbed the front fender bolt. I got a dremel and shaved the braket to the bolt. Then i redid the alignment to fix the toe in. The only time i rub now is on big bumps
