I think 15x6.5 +35 (114.3), shall clear the spoon twin block.

my 15x6.5j et39 TE37s dont fit over my twinblocks without spacers. clear my 9 wheels but they have really curved out spokes!
not a rega, but they seem the same sort of design in that the spokes sit in a bit..
 
I had this setup on my EK4, using EK9 disc redrill to 4x100. I had put a 3mm spacer behind the disc to fit the EK9 disc properly on EK4 hut (EK9 track is little width than EK4).

This is how close it would be with 15"x6.5 +35 offset (Spoon wheels are 4x100)

The 4x100 I don't think would have any part vs 5x114. You had to space the rotor to make it fit like the ek9 so they should clear but barely.
 
The 'normal' offset for regamaster evo/spoon sw388 is +42
Well on 15s not sure about other sizes
 
Yes they fit under factory alloys. Bu I want a set of regamasters looks like I might have to get a spaces as well tho
 
Here is my setup. These are +42 Regas, I run extended studs and a 9.5mm spacer.

What size of tire do you run? 195/55/15 or 195/50/15? Thanks. When I had the Spoon wheels with Spoon caliper with 205/50/15, the front tire would rub on the fender liner. Also may I know your front spring rate? Thanks!

I'm running 195/50/15 and on full lock sometimes it slightly scrubs the fender, I have 205/50/15's on my CPR's and for them to be fitted I need to take the spacers off or it rubs too much. I think the 9.5mm spacers sits the wheel perfectly I just hope I can match the stance with my CPR's when I swap them over.
 
Wow a 9.5mm space that's fairly large could you minimize the soacer size needed by getting a different offset

I may have got away with a 5mm I'm not sure, I have extended studs so running 9.5mm wasn't an issue and the fitment looked a lot better.
