[QUOTE="Joe King, post: 1335696, member: 7315"] Very strange...I have 315/18's BFG DR's on AFS 10.5" wheels w/NO SPACER & do not touch the bracket or bolt when car is on the ground...Just shows you the "tolerance" from car to car. I suggest you try ..1/4" spacers w/o changing lugs, just buy the AFS extended lug nuts ($1ea.) You'll have ample thread engagement. To see if this is enough I suggest you make a stack of washers equal to the expected spacer (1/4" to begin with) then put the wheel on & see if it is enough...this way you don't have to buy any unnecessary spacers. If it rubs w/ 1/4"...add a washer or 2 to each stud...until you get the desired clearance. Don't worry about the tire hitting the IRS bolt when the car is off the ground...unless you'll be driving in the remake of "Bullitt". [/QUOTE]
