The perfect Spacer Question

iBoost335STi · 04-23-2014, 11:07 AM

I want my wheels to be as Flush as possible without rubbing. Fronts are 18X8 offset 32 and the Rears are 18X9.5 offset 35. I have a spacer on the rear that I believe to be 15 or 20mm but I'm not 100% sure. I'm just looking for the perfect size spacers to push my wheels out as far as possible without rubbing issues. Thank you.

Forgot to mention that the rear is rubbing a little bit on hard bumps or corners. Tires are 225/40/18 in front and 265/35/18 in the rear.

Without knowing the exact size spacer I can't tell you for sure. There are too many variables to give you an exact answer, such as tire brand, ride height etc. Best thing to do remove the spacer and measure it. If you are rubbing then decrease the size by a few MMs. Or you can measure the distance between your tire and the inner fender well. That will give you the best idea of spacer size needed. This will help so you are not buying more spacers than needed.
