Has anyone ever run a 10mm spacer with integrated studs on the 17x9.5 +38? Are the recesses on the mounting face deep enough to accommodate the studs that protrude from the spacer?

I just read so much of this thread looking for the official answer as there are varying opinions about running 17X9 45 square 225/255 or 215/245 and rubbing. Will they rub on stock height, stock fenders, liners and rear bumper tab locations?

Man it's been a while since I've been on this thread! I remember lurking this thread for the longest time before I had RPF1's, glad it's still alive and well lol.
I've been lowered on Swift Springs for the longest time ever since picking up the wheels and I finally just recently picked up a set of coilovers. Getting ready to lower the car and had a couple of questions (I know this has probably been answered in the past already but if somebody could chime in I'd really appreciate it). Anybody have any idea what camber settings would allow me to avoid rubbing (if at all) and for you guys who are running this setup how much are you guys lowered? I want to keep the setup functional and eventually start tracking a couple of times a year. Just lost on what to ask for come alignment time.
Currently:
17x9 +45 (non-staggered)
255/40/17 (non-staggered)
All four fenders rolled and and bumper tab relocated.
Here's how she sits right now on springs (0.7 drop in the front, 1.0 in the back, forgot current camber settings)
Please let me know, thanks!

Ok so I've been reading through this thread and read different opinions. Would like a definitive answer before I buy.
I want to buy some 17x9 +45 all around and run Star Specs 245 or 255 all around. I don't mind rolling the fenders and trimming the rear tab but I don't want to pull the fenders. Would this set up work without any pulling only rolling. I have stock suspension now but will eventually lower it on coil-overs but not extremely aggressive. I just want it all to fit proper now and when I'm lowered. Any clear advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.
