Hey, guys. How many mm would you suggest for spacers for my specific wheel set. I've got OZ Racing Superleggera 16" x 7 , 5x100 with centering caps to fit 54.1, ET35, tires 205/50. Car is not lowered and I am not planing on it any time soon.

Since you're running on 50 series tires. You should be ok with 10-15mm in the front and 15-20mm in the rear. Won't be flush because of your tire size limits you. You will rub hitting bumps or going up driveways if you ride with flushed wheels on 50 series tires.
Here's my experience: I had lowering springs with 17x8 +45 in the front and +35 in the rear, with 225/45/17 tires. The front was ok but the rear would rub everytime I hit a bump. Its because my suspension was too soft. That's why I switched tires to 205/40 so I wouldn't rub. This post has been edited by ILoveMySilly97: Jun 10, 2013 - 4:51 PM -------------------- |
