Yes! Iv got if I remember 20mm spacers on the front and had to go for quite stretched tyres to stop rubbing badly but even with the spacers and 195 50 15 on original wheels it's still not that good!!

I have Gaz coilovers. I run 20mm spacers on the front and none on the rear with 15" BBS and 205 tyres. Arch lips are pushed back abit but it doesnt rub. It does have a fair bit of neg camber though at the front, I`m not to bothered as its a track car.
