      I can't see they make any 18" tyres in 195 size?

                    Depends what you're going for but it will tuck when you lower the car, jacked doesn't mean jack

                    Can't wait to see the wheels on! One of my fav oem wheels for sure

                      Yeah, was discussing that factor with Jorge on my FB. I want the edge just poking slightly, if i can it would go tyre arch lip

                        Cool, good job so far! You'll find it hard to get the arch in between the tyre and lip coz tyre sizes for an 8.5 = not much exposed lip but I think a 5mm spacer and you'll be nice and flush

                          sweet, know where i can get longer bolts and spacers?

                            pick your price and go for it, 5mm will be fine using your standard lugs and won't be hubcentric, 13mm is the smallest hubcentric spacer as far as I know

                            edit: don't get the shim type ones at the start, try ebay aswell, anyone that stocks spacers should have bolts aswell
