can't really go any wider, they are about 2mm from the inside of the arch, will space them out 10mm and they'll sit perfect

Like it mate. 8j is the most you can go with no arch flare. 7.5 with a 10pm spacer is where an 8 would sit.

gonna look sweet with the wheels on mate 
whats the idea of epic stretch on the back but 195s on the front wont that look a bit odd? (although im not really into the whole tyre stretch thing in general tbh haha)

well, the huge stretch is ok on the back but not really that safe on the front, so if i can get the front flush with a little bit of stretch and the back poking out with lots of stretch it'll have great stance and be relatively safe! thats the plan...
edit: plus the lower profile on the 195s will still look quite stretched anyway, we'll see how it goes when i get my sports wings on, can work it out then!

165 is epic amounts of stretch
Would never reccomend the wheels for day to day though
