    hey guys, just a quick question,
    do 15x8 rims fit under standard front guards or do u have to modify them, ie: roll lip
    PS: i have camber tops maxed out if that helps
    cheers

    if the offset is anything +4 or higher they will fit for sure no worries...
    if the offset is +4 or less.. you will need to do a lil guard work.
    anything with negative offset you will need some flaring/flares done.

    yea, cause i have 6.5 or 7's now and they seem to have heaps of room, couldnt i just lip the front and change the bolts? or would it be more beneficial to get spacers?

    what do you mean by change the bolts? as in the studs?
    that wont do anything...
    spacers will work.. slip on ones i wouldnt go any higher than a 5mm..
    bolt on you can get anything...
    what wheels you have now? the pic in your avatar?
    hmm they look like supra rims.. with the p00 offset..
    maybe get some 20mm bolt on and roll your guards..
