189rims stock sport suspension 265 Super Sport. Spacers possible?

musseilm · 09-19-2014, 11:55 AM

Any of you guys run 189rims on sport suspension with the Michelin super sport 265 and spacers?

I would like to have it more flush but not sure what size spacer i can use.
Tried to measure it but the inside of the fender is curved not straight.

Any help is appreciated.

Not sure what size 189s are but I ran stock 162s (8.5ET37) on 265/35/18 with 12mm spacer lowered on coilovers with no issues at all

I'm almost 100% sure the rear style 189 rim is 8.5" ET37. I'm running 265 PSS on a 9.5" ET35 rim with no rubbing. So if you put a 15mm spacer on that would equal what I'm running. You could always just run 12mm to be safe though.

About to order 12mm for rear and 10mm for front unless somebody else has other recommendation.

Why not run what Rodny has above

I run, 25mm (R) and 10mm (F) and I rub on heavy compressions in the rear only- Passenger side only
