Not at all! I did use a 5mm spacer in the front, but probably could have gotten away with using a 3mm. Basically, the wheels/tires come out to the fender the same as stock in the front. Even though I went with wider tires in the back (235/35) they still do not stick out past the fender.

I do have to admit that the ride is a bit stiffer. It's not that noticeable unless your really going over some real bumps or holes.
