Also, since you're running a +32 offset and mine is stock 25, that would give me 7mm extra in the rear; with a 9-inch tire (10 would be overkill, but that's kind of the point), that means I'd only be pushing about another 7mm into the suspension side, which is more than enough for a spacer to cover; I can deal with 7mm of protrusion, or 20 with a 9.5 inch wheel.

Honestly, I'd be fine with sticking out of the fender well a bit if it meant better handling. When it comes to movies, story is king. The rest can be spectacular, but it can't make a bad story into a good one. When it comes to gaming, gameplay is king. The story and art can be amazing, but they can't make a bad game into a good one. When it comes to cars, shouldn't performance come before looks?
