Default 2nd Gen OEM Wheels + Spacers?

Just picked up a 2012 ISF today and absolutely love the OEM wheels.

I want a more flush fitment, so anyone use these OEM wheels+ spacers? If so, anyone give me the depth they've used for each spacer.

Thanks in advance!

I run those wheels with 255/35/19 fronts and 275/35/19 rears. I wouldn't put spacers on them at all. They're too close. I had to trim my rear fenders to accommodate Michelin PS4S in those sizes without any spacers at all.

Hmm, okay. You have a few pics of your fitment?

I just really don't like the inset look of the wheels. Especially the front. Looks terrible, lol

These are from my initial installation. Pretty sure I had 245/35/19s on the front and 275/30/19s on the rear here.





This is a little more recent, but still not the latest. Definitely 255/35/19s and 275/35/19s in this shot.



I am now on Ohlins DFVs from Figs. The stance is the same but the ride height is slightly different so the fender gaps are not exactly as this picture shows.

You could run 15mm front and 10mm rear with a 245 front and 275 rear.
I ran 255/35/19 front / 275/35/19 rear on 20mm front and rear and rubbed pretty bad.
