Spacer Question

I'm getting my car lowered on Eibachs. I think it lowers the car about 1.5 inches.

Would I have any issues running 15mm spacers on all 4 corners? I'm particularly concerned about the back since it has a larger fender lip. Would I need to roll it or would wheels being 15mm closer to the fender not be an issue?

Thanks for your input.

Stock GSR wheels are +38 offset. With a 15mm spacer that would make the new offset +23.

From what I have read, 18x8.5 +23 should fit fine without fender modification. If it does happen to rub, a roll would definitely solve the issue, but you should be fine.

Here is a thread for reference
