Why dont you check with a measuring tape?...

Measure from the edge of the tire to the inner most part of your wheel-well lip...

Each brand of tires can be different even when they are the same size...To be safe, assume that the spacers are installed, you still want to be able to get your fingers inbetween the tire and the wheel-well lip...

It would be helpful to know what year your car is.

Just so you are clear
35mm = 1 3/8"
30mm = 1 3/16"
