Hey guys I got some ce28 18x9.5 +42 for super cheap I was wondering what size spacers do I need so they can clear the brembos .

a 10mm spacer all the around should suffice to make them fit well with a 265/35 or 255/35 tire and rear fender rolled flat and pulled a bit. Not sure if that will clear the brembo's though. You may need a bigger spacer up front, which is fine. The front has a lot more room for lower offsets than the rear.

Rear clearance to the lower control arm maybe an issue depending on what tire you choose. You may need a rear spacer as well

Too large of a spacer up front would be a concern IMO. If you need something greater than 25mm, I would be concerned (dont like spacers, at all, if you ask me)

I would also make sure they're real Volks. $700 is awfully cheap for a set of wheels that retails for over $3k...

Agree, or alternatively, how many were badly curbed?

They're real the guy who had them knows nothing about cars he got him on his car of the lot which is why he had them and the curve damage is minimal nothing too bad

I could make them fit one way or the other though right? I don't want to get rid of them.

Yes, for sure

Install the wheel & guesstimate what size spacer you will need. Look at the rear fitment & check the clearance to the lower control arm

I was going to say, those things have to be bent to kingdom come.


EDIT:


I have 18x8.5 with 235/40/18 and do not use spacers.


Before you go ahead and order a set of spacers, mount the wheels on one side of the car and go from there. If they fit, drive on them for a little and make sure they're not complete trash.
