Thanks for your help mate, I am running just stock ed30 18 pescaras.

The chap on the other forum used 10mm spacers don't want to go for that as I am already running my coils quite low.

I am based in south London and park on the street so its not easy to jack the car up and whip a wheel off, will have to go to a garage

Is there any way of working it out without the wheel off?

Thanks again

James,

Using this calculator http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp and inputing the known wheel with clearance (ie ET54) in the pic, and then adding ET51 (Std Ed 30 wheel)

You will have 3mm more clearance than the Vortex chap had.  He had to fir spacers (10mm) to get the required clearance.  So you will need to fit 7mm spacers, to achieve the same clearance he had.

Might be worth a look without, but without seeing what clearance he achieved with 10mm spacers, you will not know for sure until you fit the brakes.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for that mate, not too clued up on this side of it

Think I'll risk it both hurdy and rr fitted ok I believe with 18s and the r32 set up is quite beefy too, fingers crossed

Thanks again
