as in clearing brakes?

They will both clear the brakes na6/na8/nb8A
but not 8B or SE etc.

So yes they will fit your car.

You will need to roll the guards though, assuming you are lower than stock height.

+25 would look sick. i was pretty tempted by them too but at the end of the day, they're still copies. sexy copies though.
