I will be eventually getting the fsport springs and OEM adapter spacers. I will most likely go with something like 15 front and 20 rear.

I want to keep this car OEM but with subtle mods.

I a set of 20mm Hub centric spacer in rear which pushes the wheels out almost flush with the fenders.
In the front I currently do not have any spacers. A set of 10 or 15mm spacers will probably set it flush.

The car has been lowered 1.75 front and 1.5 rear and no rubbing.

How did you lower your car?

I purchased custom springs from a company down in Florida. Other CL members has the same spring setup like, djpeakSD. I am very happy with it and rides like the stock springs

The front dropped 1.75 and rear 1.5 inches.

I purchased ICHEBA hub centric spacers, 60.1mm Hub, and 5X114.3 bolt pattern.

I'll take some pics and post them.

great pic,very nice with 20mm u have on the rear , thanks im gonna order mine today, btw do u think 15mm all around will do it? since not much difference from 20 n 15 ?

I would think that moving the wheel's mass away from the centerline of the vehicle would cause higher loads to be placed on the springs. The effect would be similar to using softer springs. Also, the suspension's geometry under load would be modified. Typically, a specific amount of negative camber, under load, is designed in to the suspension's geometry in order to maintain an ideal tire contact patch. Changes to the wheel's relative position could lead to inferior handling characteristics and increased tire wear.

finally, i have installed 19mm all around on my 4GS F, and i believe , the rear needs another 5mm, so im gonna order another set 25mm for my rear, will update pix once its installed.

Nexson

I am going to be going this route as this is all the car needs. Once the f sport springs are released it will be pair well with 25mm rear spacers and 20mm front.

It doesn't rub with the 19mm in the front? I was thinking of going for 15mm all around like your original plan.

19mm all around installed
