I test fitted my wheels on the car and it seems like there may be some interference when the wheels are fully turned. For the moment I installed them without spacers - but I will need some, prolly 1", to fill up the fenders. Purpose of the fitting exercise was actually to determine how much spacer is needed.
My wheels are Yoko ES100 225/45-17 and the rims are 17x7.5 with 23mm offset. For the moment it doesn't rub yet but with spacers installed it looks to me that the tire will hit the fender well in the area indicated on the drawing. I was wondering whether any other people have the same problem, and if so how you solved it. Thanks!!! Attached image(s)

i run a 23x9.5x15 cantilver slick with 21mm spacer up front with no rubbing. without it would rub on the inside. the225 x16's weren't a problem. Normally pushing out the tires is not a problem.
