I just installed 25 mm spacers on my wheels, 15" x 6.5" with 38 mm offset. I love the look, but now the rear wheels occasionally rub the fenders, particularly if I hit a dip or hump with a little too much velocity.

Rolling fenders is super easy, just have to go slow.
you shouldn't be running spacers that are 25mm...thats way huge and potentially unsafe. drop it down to a 16mm or so and you should be fine. Make sure the spacers are also hub centric and you should be good to go. proper offset wheels > spacers |
