I have just bought a set of 17x8s and am wandering what spacers I need to fit, was hoping to get away with 5mm ones as I know these are needed for the 7.5 wide rims. Anyone running 17x8s with spacers?

it really does depend on the offset of the wheels, if you get the right offset you won't need spacers

Only reason I used spacers is because the tethys catch on the studs holding the arch liner in place

Tyre choice can also affect the fitment and cause rubbing.
