Fitted them to my 2wd with standard suspension. Tyre size 215/35/18 but the offset is all wrong could of done with spacers on it.Was rubbing the exhaust so took them off.
Spoke to someone who had those wheels and coilovers and he said he had 19mm spacers to make them fit didnt like the sound of that.
