Bump! I just purchased a set of 3rd Gen 5 Spoke rims. Will I need spacers for my 1st GEN ride? I currently have a CL with a 55 offset. No rubbing. The 3rd Gen rims are only 40 offset?

They're 45 offset and you shouldnt need any other modifications. Should go right now with no problem

Somebody answered me on the 1st Gen Forum that the back will rub on my 1st Gen if I mounted the 3rd Gen OEM rims.....
