Interesting, I reached out to Giovanna, seems like these Giovanna Haleb (Big Cap) style wheel of theirs only comes in +40 offset for 22x10.5. Unless the ones the OP has is in 20s? If yes, then would be 20x10.5 +30 for sure.
No, those look like 22s. OP might have spacers.

Thought so. Trying to do it right and not get spacers on a new set of wheels. But man, VOSSEN and Velgen wheels up here in Canada are tough to find, all sold out lol.

@Nightshade - Yep, those are 22's (offset 40). I haven't had any issues with rubbing at all.

Hey Y’all

Got some time to install the Eibach springs on my ST. Install was a breeze thanks for HSF install video!
Did you add spacers? If so did you 1.25' on the fronts and 1.5' on the rears?

I’m not him, but just had Eibach’s installed and am running 1.25” Front, and 1.5” rear. No rubbing or other issues, but am still on OEM’s.

For stock 21 wheels that’s way too big of spacers. 1.25” all around is the best.

What do you mean too big? The problem with 1.25” spacers in the front, is you can run 1.25”in the back and the front wheels appear to be sticking out more than the back, which makes it look odd. I run 1.25” in front cause I don’t wanna trim wheel studs, and I run 1.5” in the back because I want the back to at least be wider or have a similar appearance as the front.

With -.5* of alignment it fixes that cosmetic difference.
