spacer question. 19x10 +38 add 10mm or 12.5mm. will it rub?

i'm thinking of either getting 10mm, 12.5mm spacers and wondering if it will rub or if anybody has somewhat the same setup...

im running 19x10 +38 offset w/ falken 265/30/19 on h&r race springs without rubbing.

i measured the gap and it is right at 15mm between the fender and tire. thanks.

I have an e92, lowered on KW coils, with a 19x10 ET39 wheel, falken 275-30/19, and I had to roll the fenders to avoid rubbing with a 12mm spacer.

You should be fine with the 10mm spacer but I wouldn't go any more than that.

I just noticed your name, my cousin is pinoy and his name is bong - how funny

I ended up ordering 12.5mm's for the rear since I am running a 265 instead of a 275. We'll see what happens. I can always find a fender roller and/or put a lil bit of neg camber in the rear if I have to.

I am also pinoy and my name is Bong. Are we related? haha

I just installed my ecs 12.5mm and they don't actually rub that much. Only on big bumps/dips. I might just need a degree of neg camber and ill be all set but I'm getting ahold of a fender roller this weekend to make sure it doesn't rub at all though. pics to come soon.
