Clearance to the trailing arm at the rear will be tight, and you may have contact. Inner clearance at the front will also be close, but less so than the rear. If they clear everything on the inside they should fit without any guard modifications.

Front seems to fit fine, sufficient gap between the inner lip of the rim and the strut.
For the rear, there is still a "finger gap" between the inner lip of them rim and the rear trailing arm so I think it will be ok?
Edit: Can I confirm that 17x7 +60 (JDM DC5R wheels) fit on our AUDM DC5's without any issues? According to wheel fitment calculator 17x8.5 +40 will have 0.9mm more inner clearance than 17x7 +60. Therefore it should fit right?Last edited by dfdc2r; 15-09-14, 03:42 PM.

I have Mugen performance suspension, which is about 1.5' lower compare to factory height, front camber -0.4' and rear camber -0.25'
Do I have to do anything extra to make them fit safely? Also what tyre size should I fit front and rear?
