Just ordered a set of flat black 530's 18x8.75 +20. I'm on eibach pro kit springs (on when I purchased the car) and I'm wondering if I'm going to need a fender roll using stock tire size.

8.75 not very wide. You will be fine. I have the 9.75 with 20 offset and 265 tires lowered on coils. My rear is rolled but not much.

Right on sounds good. I'm guessing I should've went with the 9.75" but I wanted to play it safe safe after doing tons of researching, it somewhat depends on which brand of tire you have as some brands either have more of a flat face sidewall or more of an angle. Thanks guys, I appreciate it.

No spacers? How much do they clear the brakes by?

Don't do 8.75. Go 9.75 +20. Fits perfectly

I agree. No reason to go that small on an Evo. I think the 9.75 +20 is perfect for tires up to 265.

I have the 527 8.75 wheel and it fits/looks just fine.

I dont have the tires mounted but I did throw the wheels on to make sure all was good and they seem fine to me. It's just a daily driver. What's an inch going to do for me in the streets? Ha, that sounds bad
