Ok I'm pretty much sold on 20/25 but do you think you might have had any issue if you were .5" more lower than swifts?

This may be a stupid question, but if you just install bolt on spacers at stock height (no spring change), would that require an alignment?

Yes I'm pretty sure 25mm rear will rub unless you dial in negative camber to tuck the top of the wheel. I run 20mm bolt ons all around on Swifts with no issues.

No.
Thanks for your input b15, I do have rear camber kit but I would like to stay in factory spec as much as I can due to tire wear. Which bolt on did you go up with up front?

Could anybody with a lower drop or coilovers confirm that 25mm in rear will rub?

If you want factory camber specs with your drop, I'm almost certain you'll rub in the rear with 25mm

I have Z1 bolt ons f/r

Then I might just go with 20mm all around b15, how do you like them Z1's? I hear good things about their products all around.

I'm 28 out from OEM and don't rub lower than swifts.

Curious for your reasoning behind this.

I'm guessing he assumed that due to me putting bolt-on spacers in front? I do hear that you have to keep re-torquing them every couple of hundred miles

I've been happy with Z1. Ordered a few things from them and shipping is always quick. You'll need a thin wall socket for the spacers and yes, re-torque after 100miles or so just like you would re-torque your lugs.

I am running 20/25 mm rear on coils...no regrets.

Z-girl approximately how much is your drop? Also are you running the stock sports? An rubbing issue? Pics would be nice also. Thank you for the input. Really trying to get 25mm's in rear.

Spl mid links with swift racing 2.5" ID, 6", 10kg linear springs lowered to 26.2" on 285/35/18's. It's over an inch from OEM. Plenty of room at only -1.5 camber.
