I heard that they will in the rear (I think it was Scampouche or something like that) He tried it andthey rubbed on the inside during heavy cornering.

Check with Dave (micaspeed) at Delsing Motorsports - he's got a website as well that can help, and sells good spacers. Het auto-x's his MSP and can probably help, or has the info on the site. He's also got a killer rear suspension upgrade coming out, hopefully soon!

I've been wondering the same thing, except I wanted to try 225/40/17's.

Is there any REAL gain from this small of an increase?

Yep, 10mm more rubber on the ground in four places. Every little bit helps.
