enter you current fitment and desired fitment, and measure how much clearance you have at the rear of your wheels between the strut and wheel and go from there.

I did a quick calc, if your currently running 7.5" with a 45 offset and your going to 9.5" 38 offset, you have move 18mm closer to the strut. So depending on how close you are to the strut before, you may need a spacer (5mm would usually do the trick), but then you may have to think about negative camber also, as this will effect your clearance to the strut.

I know on my fitment i was only 5mm closer, which didnt cause an issue, even with natural camber slammed (which is around -4.

18x8.5 +35 you have to run 225's or smaller with natural camber and front guards need to be rolled.

if anything you may need a front camber kit to get more negative camber.
