It would have to be a guess. I actually asked him for specifics and he didn't even know exactly how much they added to the front fenders. He said that they were built around the wheel and tire package that he had selected.

For this reason.

I have the same wheels. The way they are sitting in the fender well would not require an added inch. An inch is roughly what downforce adds and I have seen plenty of those in person to know they are not the same.

Looked like it was around 15mm. I'm asking fr a friend who is considering getting these wheels, and either buying aftermarket fenders, or doing what Diez did.
