I dont understand how you guys can run front spacers and not rub fender without modding it. I'm not running any spacers with 225 RS3's and I rub the fender tabs under cornering. Lowered to probably about 1.5 finger gap and 1.5 degree camber in front.

can 10mm spacers fit on ap2v2 wheels? i mean will the recess in the wheels be enough to compensate for the exposed stud?

just bought 20mm spacers for the rears. do any of you know if 10mm bolt on spacers will work with the recessed holes in oem ap2 wheels? (this is for the front)

it depends what version of the 10mm spacer you buy. Some come with specialty flat nuts so the stock studs won't be as large. My 16mm was like this.
As for whether the OEM wheels can fit the entirety of the stud (-10mm), you could probably measure the length of the stud and the wheel recess and see?
