Wheel spacers with 8.5j front wheels

[nitrome90]

Hey guys,

Wanting to get some spacers for my already existing LCR wheels, but in the summer I will get getting some 3sdm 0.01 wheels 8.5j front and 9.5j rear, I have read loads about what spacers for the rear (20mm) as it looks really wide and good. And will also make the standard wheels better fitment in the mean time too.

Just wondering about the front, what do you guys run? Any suggestions?

Thanks

15 on the front, 20 on the back puts standard wheels about right in terms of fitment and wheel arch.

When your running the bigger ones, i think you need 20's on the front to clear the shocks. and you wont need any the rear with 9.5j wheels

Unless you're bagged, I would not recommend you getting 9.5j rears.

Thanks very much for the input going with 20mm front and then might get 5mm if needed just to make it that little wider

Why do I have to be bagged sorry?

probably because you'd need to go really low to pull off a 9.5 wheel

you can do it with coilovers, friend of mine is running 19" on the rear which is 9.5j wide

Just because unless you're sitting super low, it might look a bit odd. You'd probably also need a good stretch on your tyres to keep from rubbing and to get a decent fitment.

Yeah that was the plan, get coils and drop it around 40mm on the back, and I will be getting air, but I can't afford it at the moment, being 19 on the McDonald's wage only goes so far

mines on 8.5 on the front and 9.5 on the rear fit lovely only running 10mm on the front clears the coilover and the caliper
