What size spacers should i run?

[blackmist222777]

Hey folks...
lowering the car tomorrow with some Ohlins R&Ts. I know it will make the wheels look a bit sunk in. what size (H&R spacers) spacers should i get? i was thinking 12MM all around but maybe someone who has done this already has a better idea. can any one help out?

12mm with stock wheels works well : http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=590523

any idea what size bolts work with 12mm?

I remember reading a thread that explained how anything past 10mm would negatively affect the suspension geometry by adding negative scrub radius.

I ran 10mm all around and found it perfect.

I have 10mm in the front and 5 in the rear. 10mm in the rear just looked to weird to me...plus I think it would rub as my M is on low in the back (O R&Ts.)

Not sure, usually the spacer sets come with longer bolts. Alternatively you can just got with a stud kit, which is the preferred route.

i ended up ordering a 12mm and a 10mm set. i am thinking ill just run the 10mm in the front. i dont have too much issue with the rear.

this sounds like a perfect setup. although i think what makes the most sense is buying lighter wheels with the appropriate spacing. just need to save up $$$$

thought about that however i hate that you have to replace them from time to time. they are considered a consumable. basically dealing with high heat and stress overtime makes them weaker.
