Rears will be tuckin a bit. Could probably get away with a 10mm spacer without rubbing with no problem as that will take you to an et33 in the rear which is def doable.

hahahaha well yes Allen this would be a nightmare for you. However most are not pushing the envelope of width as you typically do so well.
op Allen has a point. It all depends on what you are going for. If you are looking for something that fits with some room for adjustment in width, then yes these will work. If you are looking for a flush or a bit of a poke with out the need for spacers than these are not the wheels for you. They are a bit conservative. For instance, I am running et20 in the rear, I did however roll my rear fenders a bit. So it all depends on what look you are trying to obtain. Allen has pushed the limits with poke and stretch so this set up would drive him nuts.

get extended bolts. make sure they are hub centric.
why not just buy rims with the proper offset? |

I have ran 10mm spacers on numerous occasions with zero issues. as long as you get a spacer built buy a reputable business you should be fine. given they are installed properly with extended bolts (which typically come with 10mm spacers) and torque them down properly. people track their cars with 10mm spacers all the time. if you dont want to run spacers but dont want to look tucked... I suggest looking at a different set of wheels.
