Question Need wheel fitment help!

Hey guys,

I just bought a set of JIC Cross coil overs from a club member and installed them the other day. The problem is that my street wheels no longer fit...they rub on the adjusters in the rear (front is fine).
I have 20x11" rears with a 49ET and am running a 3mm spacer. I removed the helper springs in the rear and the wheels now fit but the car is too high for my liking due to where the adjuster nuts must be placed.
Does anyone know how much more I can space out the rear wheels (safely) before I end up rubbing the fenders?
I am looking at getting a new set of wheels since I think I shot myself in the foot with this...
BTW my wheels are tires are for sale in the classified section!

10mm spacers should do it for a coilover suspension. 11'' with ~37 offset works for the stock suspension and 11'' with ~40 works with coilovers.

You might consider getting fenders rolled before investing in new set of wheels. Might save you some money if you like your current wheels.

I believe that my wheels are 49ET in the rear (11") so an additional 5mm might not fit on the outside.
This may be the opertunity to sell them and get a set of track wheels.
