lol we need offsets to know, tell him to sell his wheels and buy suspension first.

No spacers for the front, maybe the rear though until he gets coilovers, just put em on and check.

Is doesnt need those over fenders at all, unless he went to a good offset, like -10 or something like that

215/40 or 45/17 for the front

235 or 245/40/18 for the rear

tire sizes can be different but these would fit fine.
