Default Anyone have 19" wheels with spacers?

Anyone who is running 19" rims and also running spacers I would love to see a pic. Could you also tell much how large the spacers are. I just bought 19". wheels as well as 20mm spacers all around so I'm hoping everything will fit without looking weird or rubbing.

Anyhow, post your pics please!

Give us some specs on your wheels (width & offset) tires (width and sidewall height) and if you're lowered.

And.... i'm not sure if you know what spacers are used for....

+40 all around.

My rears sit perfectly flush, with no spacers.

If you are on springs, you should be good with 15-20mm in the front.

spacers are used to have a wheel that is in the wheel well entirely or partially to come flush to the fenders and bumper.

my wheels are the f-sport wheels from the second generation IS -- width 8" offset 40
the tires are continental extremecontact dws 235/35/19

i'm lowered on rs*r down springs

nevermind, i just placed a cancellation order on one of the two sets that i purchased. cancellation isn't guaranteed at this point, so i had to write a sob story about how i ordered two on accident because i thought only one spacer was in the box. pretty dumb but hopefully they'll buy it.

the other set will go on the front for sure.
