Those wheels your oreder will most likely not fit with out spacers. I just put some rims on with spacers so they would clear the front caliper and the only thing you have worry about spacers is the wheels might stick out if you have a really thick spacers on.
no. he was right.

both first and second gen 3S have 4 piston calipers up front, but different size rotors. the first gen's rotor is smaller than the second's. therefore, any wheel that fits the second gen will fit the first but not vice versa.
