    Lol don't worry about it, my under tray scrapes the floor while driving and I'm on 18x8.5 wheels - not caused any problems yet apart from getting beached on speed bumps and potholes a couple of times - been driving like this for a few months now

      Wonder if thatd compromise warranty

        Cheers Zack haha.

        Again, warranty wise. Prove that it directly affects the broken part. Any engine problems would be stupid to void it. Obvs suspension is not longer covered lol.

            Zack,

            What tire size are you using?
            I've read about your problems with wheel spacers, but how are you running those rims then?
            What offset are they?

            Thanks man

              215/35/18 on the front,

              Those spacers that broke were 2 years ago mate - non hub centric ones so I won't be making that mistake again !

              Offset of these are in the high 30's forgotten the exact figure and they're all spaced out 25mm.

                Here is a handy offset calculator so you can figure out how a wheel will sit on the car. http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Wheel-Offset-Calculator The original bellones are 7 in wide with 25ET (offset) just plug in your aftermarket wheel width and offset. Hit a +- button for it to calculate the results.

                  Would you mind in share what spacers are you using currently ?

                  Here in Brazil I am having some trouble in finding an 18'' set. The 5 sets I've seen have offsets of either 7, 7.5 or 8.
                  I am trying to look for the best fitment then I will decide if the rim design pleases me.

                  Thanks for the help !

                      7,7.5 or 8 is that the offset or wheel width sounds like wheel width. offset should be in mid teens +- depending on wheel width. If the offset is high you will need to get spacers to push the wheel back out.
