This is a thread for those how have had first hand experience with spacing out GTS rims. Wondering what you're using SIZE wise, and what you would recommend SIZE wise to make a flush, but functional setup with 50/55 tires (sidewall).
H&R spacers of course… My current thought would be 5mm spacers, but would like to hear from people that have had first hand experience. Please post pictures if possible. Thanks- -------------------- Past: V6 Swapped 6G Celica, E46 BMW M3, Jeep Wrangler TJ

the wheels are 6.5 wide and have a 39mm offset with 205/50/16 tires.

It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is blurry. And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside. |

So 15mm spacers should be more than acceptable, just not out as far as the 20mm. OK. -------------------- |
