What spacers are people running size size? I just ordered Emanuel Design springs and want to push the wheels out closer to the fender.

+15mm all 4 corners looks perfect IMO and no rubbing at all even when lowered.

15mm will make it pretty much flush. A lot of people go for 12/10mm instead. I ran 15mm all the way around stock but went to 12mm for the front.

Every picture I have seen of 15mm front does not look to stick out as far as mine did. I went to 12mm front because 15mm front for me actually seemed past flush.

Its not a exact science.

The best thing to do: Buy a set of 12mm and 15mm and play around with it. If you need to adjust its probably going to be one of the sets at the most! You can swap with someone or sell for minimal loss.

Also make sure you are done with suspension upgrades before trying spacers. Lower your car first, then get spacers, then drive it around for a while and then get a alignment done! You want to make sure you have the spacers you want ON before you get alignment done and not after! Spacers will effect camber!
