Distance / Wheel spacers for FR

[t80lew]

I run 15mm front and 20mm rear and I’m lowered on eibach sportslines I don’t have any rubbing at all. For me it’s spot on and looks perfect. I’ll accept higher bearing wear for what they cost to replace.

It just looks right to me.

I am going for the same set up as yours on the 25th. I hoping with mine been an FR and on 18s it will still be a good fit all round.

I’m after basically accidentally buying 18x8j ET30 wheels for the rear of my unlowered leon mk3 fr, so similar to running 15mm spacers on the normal offset or more like 20 if we’re talking 7.5j wheels, does anyone know is this a bad idea to continue, I’ll need to buy new tyres for the 2 wheels as they’re fitted with big suv tyres

The outer rim will poke out 26.4mm more than before, than the common ET50 standard 18" wheels.
The outer rim will poke out 21.4mm more than before, than the ET45 optional 18"

So you need to determine if anyone's running more than 26mm spacers on standard wheels?

I’ve found one person running 20mm spacers on the back looks good but the extra 6mm will likely ruin it
