Just installed the KDM Tuners ctsv conversion kit and now my stock wheels won't fit. They keep hitting the wheel before they even get close to the rotor. I installed the 3mm wheel spacer on both sides but I have to be missing something because this thing is way off! This is my daily so I need to try to get it up and running asap. Thanks in advance!

I had to get 1" spacers for my stock wheels to fit

I told you when it says all 18's will fit that is not true and you needed to get measurements first before knowing what wheels may fit. I think by saying all 18's will fit they mean the barrel of the wheels only.

Sorry but no pics lol. Reached out to kdm and they stated that I would need to run some 20mm (roughly 3/4") spacers in order for the stock wheels to clear. I didn't know this at the time of purchasing. Spacers should be here tomorrow so hopefully that fixes the issue. Does anyone know of any aftermarket wheels that will clear without having to run the spacers? Never been a big fan of wheel spacers PLUS it would give me an excuse to the wife for ordering a new set of wheels🤣
Motegi MR145s 18x8.5 ET35 clear them. They do poke just a bit so you may have add more negative camber if you're lowered. Look for Evo X wheels on Tire Rack.

I'm stock height and will stay that way. I bought this as a fun little daily commuter for work. Getting to old to get in and out of those really low cars lol. So either of those wheels will work without spacers or are motegi and Evo x wheels the same wheel? I shouldn't scrub with those wheels and no spacers correct?
I'm stock height too and have no rubbing issues, no spacers. The MR145s are not stock Evo X wheels, just spec'd to fit an Evo X. You could get a set of stock Evo X wheels too, just remember to get the lug nuts as well cause they're a different seat style.

Do you have any pics of them on your car? Wanting to see how much poke it actually is. If I get on tire rack it says they won't fit my car. Also they offer 2 different BS...do you know which one you went with? Thanks again for all your help!
18 x 8.5 +35 in that wheel is what he posted he used no spacers and cleared.

I found it now...I got the part number for them. I was just hoping to see some pics of them on his car to see how they look on a veloster.
