Hey,

Im looking to get spacers but in the UK, people tend to get 25mm all around. Mostly because anything less does not fit (supposedly).
Ive been told that at the front, anything less than 25mm and the stock bolts stick out too much and hit the wheels.
On the back ive heard the lowest you can go is 20mm before the stock bolts dont hit against the spaces in between the wheels.

I really dont like it when wheels look too far out so I would like to know how you guys managed to get 15mm spacers to work?
Im planning on lowering the car on eibachs too.

thanks

25 mm all around is pretty aggressive in my opinion, especially if you lower the car. I did H&R DRM's 20mm front, 25mm rear with no issues of any kind on stock springs. You may need to dial it back to 15mm/20mm if you lower the car.
