    Hey mate I'm running 15x8 and 0 offset on my KE but I did have to roll the guards to get them to fit!
    In also running BC coilovers all round and have it sitting at a good height where it doesn't scrub!
    The front driver side scrubs web I hit hard potholes everyone and then or corner to hard but that's because I need to adjust my caster better

    The second picture is with standard suspension and cut springs
    The first is how it is sitting now on coilovers and height adjustable rear springs!

    Yeah just on stock struts.. It didn't scrub on the struts just the guards till I flared them I've got a slight stretch in my tyres but can't remember what size they are at the moment! I'll let you know later on if you would like!

    Yeah I live locally so you will probably see it there every now and then if your from around the area

    I'm running 195/50 tyres as well as I was going to get 195/55 but the guy at the tyre shop said 55s would scrub on the inside on the strut!
    Remembered just before when I was checking my tyre size!

    ohk sweet, hopefully getting the wheels next week or week after ill post a test fit when i get them.

    so is the 195/50 stretched or perfect? does your wheels poke out o guards? if so how have cops reacted to it?

    Got them from bob Jane at Marion
    We deal with them a lot at work so got a good deal on the RE002s through them!
    They are pretty good in there and know what they are talking about and look after their customers as well
