A turbo with PS2s, the size you mention, mounted on 8.5 42mm offset and 11J 30mm offset, and ride height of 110/120mm (f/r) will be close but with a very firm suspension OK........any lower (or softer) definately need fender prep.....(or raise it or go higher offset). These #s aren't gospel.....only my experience.

Sounds like you already have your wheels coming...........good luck.

Gregg, many thanks on the info. Iforged actually guaranteed me perfect fitment or I can return them. Obviously I don't want to do that. I gave them close estimates of my setup and they have done many sets of wheels for turbos. I am not worried, I think they will come out fine. Again, thanks!!
