Some guys are running 15mm all around.

Track guys who are running 15mm spacers all around with 245's and 315's, any rubbing? I'm currently running 7mm's all around with no problems, but the 15mm's look much better.

do you need longer wheels studs to run 15mm?

7-15 here as well. Connect with Dan at Vivid- he sold me the whole kit taking all the guess work out and final layout looks sweet, plus helps at the track. I'm using standard tire size but lowered with PSS9 to 26" (ground to top of fender) and get no rubbing. Did I mention it looks sweet- even with stock twists.

I have 15mm all around on stock rims and suspension. No rubbing with 235/40/18 front and 315/30/18 rear. I went with the RSS spacers that come with the longer bolts.
