Keep 18mm rear spacer or switch to 15mm?
Setup is Stock 193M 18" wheels, stock rear suspension, and 18 mm BMS rear spacer.
I get an occasional rub over compression bumps currently. I am about to replace my rear tire in a week from Hankook Evo V12 to Michelin PSS (stock sizes). Everything I hear about the PSS is that it's a little more square, so I'm worried there will be more rubbing. So I need some advice, keep the current rear 18mm spacer? Or switch to a 15mm right away? Thanks. |

I'd keep the 18mm spacers, the difference of 2mm probably wouldn't make a big difference. You also said you currently have PSS tires which i believe run a bit wider than most. I think you'll be fine once you switch to the v12's.

And they DEFINITELY rub more now. So I'll be selling my 18 mm spacers and getting a pair of 15mm. |
