you will need a 1" spacer. 0.5" is not enough. that's assuming you are using standard au offset wheels.

So if I was to look at some wheels to suit (without running spacers). What offset would I be after?
Never really spent much time looking at wheels :P

I believe that you can and quite easily.
CAT600 is running some ridiculous rubber under the back of TerminatorS (305's from memory), ask him.
