Looking for people who run spacer on the standard LC wheels, and information on the size.

Done my research and know all about the hubcentric ones and the actual PCD/bolts required.

I just can't decide what width to go for...

My car is on H&R 35mm springs, but doesn't sit too low.

I'd like to space the wheels so they aren't as tucked in as they currently sit, I'm not sure if 15mm (per side) on the rear would be too much?

Was going to go either 8mm or 10mm on the front.

Any info and pics you have of yours would be great!

I went for 8mm all round with the starfish wheels, but thinking of going up to 10 for the rear seeing as I've got new alloys. Mine is lowered about 45/50mm and the 8mm spacers sit quite well.

There's a good way to tell what ones you need/want:
Get a piece of masking tape and stick it on your wheel arch so it drops down but make sure to weigh the tape down with a bolt or something. Then just measure to the wheel and take off a few mm - that will give you a good idea for what size. :)

Hope this helps. I might post a few pics with the 8mm spacers.

15mm rear and 10mm front are pretty common sizes to use on these cars with stock wheels.
