You can use four rear wheels without issue. The 19x10" ET30 up front will bring the wheels flush to the fender, but it shouldn't poke past them or cause any rubbing issues.

The rear will look comparatively sunken-in though, so you'll need to add 15-20mm spacers to bring them out flush.

I'm usually not the biggest fan of using spacers with their own studs built into them, despite it being a cheaper option. I'd suggest adding extended wheel studs and slip-on spacers instead.

Keep in mind though, if something is causing your rear tires to wear prematurely, going to a square setup won't fix that, it'll just be a band-aid.

Agreed! Also on the tire wear issue it’s definitely possible the selling dealer didn’t check the alignment, or doesn’t when in for servicing. It’s a long boat ride from Japan and a lot can happen on the roads in 5000 miles! Also never underestimate a heavy foot!

Spent $1200 for rep wheels that functionally do the job 19X11s rear +12 and 19X9.5 front +17 . I spent $4000 for Rays Volks TE37s back in '19 for my FK8. This time I decided to save $

damn your setup looks dope, looking to powder coat the oem Rays silver to get some contrast. What company did you get your rims from? Thanks.
