Hi, I’m not very familiar with wheels and tires, but I’m considering this setup. Do you anticipate any potential issues? My ST will be equipped with H&R springs.

There shouldn’t any problems with that setup, although you will have to run hub spacers to fill in the space between the stock 70.5mm hub and the bigger hub on the wheels.

Could you please explain like I'm five.

Haha, sorry could have probably explained that better. Basically, you need these for the wheel to properly mount on the wheel hub.

Amazon.com: WHEEL CONNECT Hub Centric Rings,76.1 to 70.5, Set of 4, Aluminium Alloy Hubrings, O.D:76.1-I.D:70.5mm. 10mm Height. A : Automotive
No worries! I get it now—I thought you meant wheel spacers. Really glad I asked first! I’ve seen a few people with these wheels, and none of them mentioned needing a hub spacer. Thanks for clearing that up! By the way, should I go with the 10mm or 8mm?
