Is there anybody with 19" Rays wheels, lowered, and has 20mm spacers up front and 25mm spacers in the rear? After about a month of contemplating, I still can't decide whether to go with 15mm/20mm or 20mm/25mm. I'm leaning toward the latter because I like that absolutely flush look, but I want to make sure the wheels won't stick out past the fenders. Ugh...decisions decisions...

It depends on your drop. 20mm up front MAY rub.

Some related links on the front. spacers also scroll down to post # 37

25mm in rear will work. Mike has them and they work. Do a search on his posts.

Personally, I find this setup to be the most impressive. What do you guys think?

How much is he lowered in the front on the BC coilovers? Any rubbing in the front?

I agree the look is awesome. I may have to sell my unopened H&R 15mm fronts and buy the 20mm if there is no rubbing.

Looks great from some pics, a little too much for me in others.

No rubbing issues at all, I love the look and wish i could go a little lower but feel I would lose driveability. The rear tires have a large rim protector that sticks out farther than any other tires I've seen. Car is lowered about 1.4 inches all the way around. I believe th ground to fender height is approx. 26.6inches all around.

Is there a real difference in quality among the different brands of spacers (e.g., Ichiba, H&R, CZP, Kics) or is the only difference based on price?

the hub ring on the H&R protrudes farther into the wheel than the Ichiba. It made a difference with my nismo s-tune wheels.

Thanks man for the feedback. These will work then for Eibachs (1.0" drop) with no rubbing issues...woot..woot. Looks like I am gonna have to spill some $$ on the 20mm to mount up front.

That will give me 15mm, 20mm and 25mm to tryout, then sell the size I do not use.

Does that mean that if I get 20mm front H&R spacers that I don't have to get hubcentric (i.e., I can just get bolt-on) or do I still have to get hubcentric?
