What spacer to use for stock 18s?
Ok, so Im looking to make my rear wheels flush with the fenders. What size of spacer do you guys recommend? 20mm? 25mm? (I have 18" oem wheels with bridgestone potenza 255/40/18 tires)
And when spacer sizes are listed, they list it per side, not the total of both sides combined right?

This is very close to stock 18" offsets, I am on +5mm more aggressive than stock. And yes, spacer is listed per side, as in how wide each spacer is.
PS: I am running 18"
Here is no spacers:
With 25mm spacers in the rear:

15mm front and 20mm rear
You can pick up some Ichiba Version II spacers for cheap in the vendor's forum.
There's a Mister T thread with that setup installed. It looks perfect.

I would say most likely this could throw off the alignment a bit. I just lowered mine with F-Sport as well and have been holding off on the alignement until I get the spacers installed.

From what I've read in other threads, there are no alignment issues with lowering springs and spacers (15/20). Some have proven that the alignment is still within factory specs post install. But if it'll help you sleep better at night, get it done after the suspension has had time to settle.

here's a thread with a few pics of my car on Tein S-tech springs and 15/20mm H&R spacers.
