Default spacers ????

I have a set of vossen cv2's 20" x 8.5 +38 (f) and 20" x 10 +45 (r) that should be here in about a week

My question is if i dont like the stance what size spacer could i use to get a better stance without doing any fender mods (ie..shaving, rolling)

In other words how big of a spacer can i use without doing any fender mods ?

I plan on ordering an (awd) 20mm rca kit to install as well if that has any bearing on the spacers


is there a brand that stands out above the rest ? ive heard of Ichiba but have only read about them

Wow I'm surprised u got. 8.5 front and 10 rear. Most people who get vossens on the 3gs get 9 front +38 and 10.5 back +45..I might be wrong but I think that is the set up Vossen recommends..atleast I think that's what they told me on the phone a while back.. I got cv1s and I'm flush with the fender in the rear. Almost flush in the front with only rubbing on turns on the the fender liner of the passenger side.

I use Ichiba and they work great. What tire sizes are you running then I'll be able to answer your question.

I believe you meant 20x9 +38 front and 20x10.5 +45 in the rear? If so, i think that's going to be as aggressive as you can go without fender mods and non stretched tires. Good luck and post tire sizes you choose.
