I can't believe he's running that wide a tire, those will not fit with out major modifications, but you could sell them.

With the wheel and spacer combos I am currently running I'm at ET25 front and ET30 rear with no rubbing and I'm lowered. 30 and 33's should be fine.

The thing is i didn't wanna buy spacers I know it'll clear my brakes what I'm afraid of is rubbing. The tire sizes he has on there are way bigger then stock. I think they are 255/30/18 front and 285/35/18 rear. I think it'll look sick if I got them on there lol.

What im getting at is that with my spacers, my wheels are sitting out further (with no rubbing) than yours will, aka, you'll be fine.

I would not even try it. In fact, I think someone needs to contact this guy and correct him on his product. So send me the info on where I can buy them myself, or I mean reach him and I will set him straight!
Good thing I am watching out for you bud!

Im positive the 255's in the front will cause sveral rubbing issues as my 235's just fit nicely, the 285's will most likely rub the inner fender liner and shock body. I've never seen this combo on a 209 but expierence with other sizes is telling me it just ain't gonna work mate.
Besides that, the 285's would throw your speedo way off...
