Spacers

[Rsipad]

Hi, I was just wondering what size spacers people run on their e85/86s. I am thinking of getting 15mm front and 20mm rear for mine and was just wondering.

I bought 15/20 for mine yesterday….should arrive today. My car is lowered so hoping I don’t get rubbing on the front.

Good morning and welcome to the forum.
It's not always a straightforward answer, depending very much on the wheel type fitted and the suspension height.
There are also some who would do not advocate spacers on the front wheels as it can change the steering feel and input. Others will say they have them on the front to no detriment at all.
Why not pop a few photos of your car up in the newbies section and introduce yourself?
Then we can offer better advice as to which spacers would give the look you want.

...others would also ask WHY you want spacers? Is it for aesthetics, or to solve a problem?

I've just ordered and received 12mm front and 15mm rears for my coupe, fitted with MV2's. Will post some pics once i've got them fitted. I know a lot of others have gone with 15/20s. As above, very wheel dependant.

15mm front and 20mm rear might be OK if you have OE staggered 18" wheels depending on your suspension set-up.

Don't forget to order the longer wheel bolts!
