 Did you mean 17"s? Cuz yeah the spokes go in pretty far on them. The 16"s I got look to have good clearance.
Spacers FTW?

Spacers shouldn't be needed. The 17"s have an offset that puts them way out to the fenders but the spokes come back in. Spacers would possibly have them looking funny and rubbing the fender even more. Though they shouldn't be needed for this. I hope. And the 16"s have a similar offset but normal spokes.

Okay, the parts came back in and they look really nicely cut. Only they don't look like the plans I gave them! lol He's gonna sit down with the operators and figure out what went wrong with the lasercutting from plans to part, and give me a call back in a couple of days. Be patient.

Is this going to be a one run deal, or am I going to be able to get a set after I get some larger wheels?

They've already said they'll work with the stock SVT wheels. You won't NEED to go any larger to make these work. Just incase you were waiting for larger wheels to get in on this.
