Right so i kinda got these wheels here and i wanna run spacers they're 19x8.5 et35.
This is same exact wheel, car, etc. EXCEPT hes got 10mm spacers AND 215/35s I have 235/35s think I can fit 10mm or even 12mm? :eyebrows

Measure the distance from the tire to the fender and space accordingly
you would probably already be rubbing with that chunky 235 tire. go to a 215 at least and then get a 20mm spacer and some camber :)

Its too hard to accurately tell someone how big of a spacer to get by just looking at pics. Then posting a pic of a car thats not the car in question and is running a different setup? I can't tell how much the fenders have been rolled, how wide the tire he has runs, or what his camber specs are...
If ya want to do it right, measure. If ya don't care, measure with your eyes closed.

Bro, I understand. Wasn't saying anything was wrong with your post. I was about to say the same thing then saw that you said it. I just thought it was funny that I knew you'd post that in this thread.

Post wasn't aggressive, just further explaining my reasoning :)

Camber changes the game, too.
put YOUR wheels on YOUR car and see how they fit.
go from there.

Ive had those wheels and I have your same car..
For one i can tell you that those are not spaced. they are right at x8.5 +35, jsut he is running a 215/35.
to put it simply, i had 225/35 on the same wheel, and i couldnt run a 12mm spacer because it would rub way too much.
so with a 235/35 you wont be able to at all, actually im surprised you dont rub now as is.
let me know if you need anything else.

I don't even want these wheels anymore anyway, just want to space them out to tide me over for a while.
Oh well I guess I'll just have to wait til I see the car over christmas break. Thanks anyway guys.
