Fronts use a 20mm spacer

This clears my strut by about 5mm, tire has 10-15mm clearance. Fits just about perfect.
This is so awesome to see. We made this particular wheel for use on the rear of the M2, but this looks like another great application for the 18x10.5" ET40. Nice work!

Also, am I right in thinking 18x10 et 25 all round with 265/35/18 would be ok and rotatable on a car without ceramics? Can anyone confirm whether a spacer is required on the front when running M Performance HAS?

Thanks
With the MP HAS, typically 5mm spacers will provide enough clearance, but not always. As mentioned, running a 265 tire will help, but with that being the case, we recommend using the 18x9.5" ET22 as a square fitment, which will eliminate the need for spacers.
