Right. looking at some wheels but not sure if they will fit.with the offset they have. specs are:

17x9.5 et48 17/215/45 - fronts

17x10 et 50 17/235/45 - rears

will these fit a spec r with rolled (not flared) arches or can they be made to fit with spacers?

Thanks for.any help in advance :)

They'll fit but you'll need at least a 20mm spacer for the front i'd have thought, otherwise you'll foul the coilover. The rear would probably benefit from the same as the stance might look a bit odd otherwise.

i looked at a lot of picks and 9j +20 front 10j +38
will be spot on roll arches and its done
rear camber can be adjusted back to stock camber so no worn tyres

Sorry, you're right. I'm thinking et 20 not 20mm spacer. I run a 9j on the front of my car and had to lower the et down to 20 to have a comfortable gap between the rim and shock, plus the spoke design was fowling on my clippers.
