Wheel offset question...one simple answer is all I need from a guru!
I currently have 19X9.5 +38 wheels in the rear of my GS400. Will I rub anything if I ALSO use 15mm wheel (adapter) spacers? I want to bring the wheels out a little bit more.
They are custom built forged multi-piece wheels but they weren't made custom for me; someone else had them made and the purchase went through at a local shop from me - this is how I got such a great deal on them last year. I am going to throw them back on real soon in a month or so and want to see if the 15mm spacers would be a good fit.
Let me know guys! Thanks!

I need to know how much wheel space will "safely" push out my rear wheels without any fender modifications...5mm? 10mm? 15mm? I want it to sit "more flush". I also understand that if I go with anything thinnner than a 15mm wheel spacer then I can't buy the "adapter style" I will only be limited to the spacer alone and have to use extended studs which I REALLY DON'T want to have to do. ;(

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe Rock is a little more concerned about traction than most of the VIP crowd and may be hesitant to go too narrow on the tires.
What brand and model are the tires, as you know some tires run wider and that'll make a difference in what needs to be done to fit them.
A 15 mm would probably require a shave from what I can gather from my own fitment. My wheels are currently a little more conservative than yours and I expect to need a shave to fit 15 mm spacers from my measurements.
You could throw one on and do some measurements as a rough guideline of how things will work.

The tires are Bridgestone Potenza RE760 sports.

That's just about how low I am maybe a "hair" higher...I beleive Cliff has 20's though right? I have 19's, not sure if that matters. Also, in that pic are his fenders shaved and/or rolled? If he also has a 9.5" wide wheel and his offset is say a +33; wouldn't that be basically me adding a 5mm spacer? Is this how it works? Or if he has a +28 offset in that pic, would that be like me adding a 10mm spacer...am I getting this concept right? (assuming he has a 9.5" wide rear wheel like me)
Thanks for the help!
