Rubbing is nominal on the front, but this is due to two reasons. 1) I hadn't trimmed the small protrusion on the front of the fender liner that covers the bumper/fender connection and 2) I have the front's offset a bit too agressive. I went with 18mm spacers on the front and in truth, 15mm is going to be perfect. I thought of lessening it by 5mm to a 13mm, but my measurements show this is going to be too wimpy. Rubbing shouldn't be an issue with the new spacers and after having trimmed the front liners. The rear doesn't touch anywhere.
I will post up the height from ground to fender once I have a free moment to measure this for you guys.

Looks great, I was actually at the powder coaters yesterday picking out color samples to do the Nismo wheels I'm getting, was looking at a gun metal too
Would you say that color is about the same darkness as the stock brake calipers, lighter/darker??
Also, you said you were running 18mm spacers, front, was that on the rear too?
I have 15mm all around, running 255/305 tire set up, you think that will be ok?
Thanks
