Thanks!

No.

You'll not rub. I've recently switched my Swifts to H&R but still with the same spacer setting (20/25) and they didnt rub even when my tires are 265/35 fronts and 285/35 rears. The only setup that will rub is 25/30 so with 15/20 you're good to go

I'm lowered on eibach and I swapped my orginal spacers out for 30mm front and 38mm back. I have no rub issues with stock sport rays.

I believe the fronts are 30mm however on the rears i'm not so sure..even my 25mm look flusher..or did you camber it damn good?

Here's my setup : 20/25 combo with Swifts springs on the first 2 pics and H&R springs on the last picture

What about the same topic but on base wheels? I'm thinking 25 all around.

cheshirecat · 03-12-2012, 05:41 PM

If I were you, I would take that money and save it toward a used set of the sport 19's.

The spacers are really a visual upgrade, and (just in my opinion) the base wheels don't fit the wheel arches that well. Perhaps with the proper drop, you could pull it off.

I simply haven't seen a car with the base 18s that looked appealing. Maybe someone just hasn't gotten the stance right yet.

I don't particularly like the sport wheels. If I were to spend money on wheels I'd get aftermarket ones that I like. This is just a cheap cosmetic upgrade to tide me over.

If u have the 18s, you need about 35mm spacers all around cause they are thinner but I would just get different wheels. They are really not that appealing IMO as well
