245 with spacers.

Hey all. So i've seached the forum, but couldnt really find a good answer. In the near future, i will be purchasing spacers (not sure which brand yet), but plan on going 15mm F and 20mm R and also plan to put a 245/45/17 tire. Will I rub with this setup? Also, anyone heard of Proteg spacers?

Thanks for the help!

If you still wanted to know, if you don't have a fender roll, it will definitely rub. I ran a 235/45/17 with 15mm F and 20 mm R and it barely cleared.

so many different aspects....
if you have coils, you can raise the car up to prevent rubbing.
you can also roll fenders.
you can also play with tire specs...
then lastly, y ou can play with camber.

it's not a one solution to fit all... you will need to assess what is going on with your set up and then choose a solution that fits your skill and budget

You will probably rub I had 255/40/17 with 20mm spacers in the rear 15mm front but also had my fenders rolled and pulled and It was a little too close to the fender.
you can try what Justnspace mention with that setup.
