Depending how much they hit the calipers, do like we did and grind them down...There is enough to work with plus when your down it leaves them purty so you can paint them...I have a thread on here under here somewhere...

I still have those 25mm Ichiba V2 spacers... I've tried calling Ichiba regarding getting a new nut, but their phone was disconnected.

I found a set of 5mm spacers that should work well. I also have a set of 20mm, but I think that'd be a bit much and Id def rub without doing some fender work. Id rather the fender work wait till next season when I grab an air setup (hopefully).

And I could grind the caliper but Id rather just space it and see how I like that, if that doesnt suit me, I'll grind it.

It took me a while and this isn't the greatest pic, but there is no outside water usage in my area, so this will have to do until I can clean it up really well.

Got any more pics from different angles on this setup. I'm considering a similar setup. Whats the specs on the wheels?

Looks great.

Well, I didn't have the Scion for long. Liked the car, but needed something with a bit more pep, so we traded it for a WRX. I kept the TSW whees if anyone is interested in purchasing them. I also have some NF210 springs that are new in the box if anyone wants to buy them.

Default TSW wheels

18x8 +40 TSW Trackstars. Front tires are 225/45/18 rears are 235/45/18. I like how the rear fills out the wheel well but not sure I like the bigger tire look. I just had these laying around and wanted to experiment. Thinking about painting the wheels matte charcoal grey. I'm not sure if I like the all black yet.
