So I installed 20mm spacers in the rear and it rubs. I'm currently running stock 245/40/17 on UK alignment specs, dropped with Espelirs. My fenders aren't rolled and really don't want to either.
If I get 235 tires, will that stop the rubbing?

i know with a 20mm the rear will rub, what about the front with a 20mm?

I'd still roll even with 15mm -- I've posted this many times in this thread already. You shouldn't be too worried about "rubbing on the freeway" what you should be worried about is bumps in the middle of a turn, such as up a driveway, or down a freeway onramp or something of the sort. Even with 15mm, if you're lowered that tire will eventually catch your front unrolled fender and pull it right out!

I still have yet to see an aggressive fitment aftermarket wheel that looks classy and polished on an S. IMO, the OEM AP2 V1's and V2's suit the car the best.
