You will have to use 18mm spacers if you get the 16x8 RK, no matter what size tire you use (see the spreadsheet!), and Tire Rack does include them. I did have to trim my left rear fender lip a bit.

I run 225/50 Yokohama AVS Sports; I can't comment on the Potenza as I don't know anybody who has them, sorry.

Ok.....I also like the BBS RK, was one of my first choices until tire rack told me it would rub. Do you need a spacer if you use a 225/50/16? and what do you think of the Potenza SO-3 Pole as a tire on that wheel?
