need help on Spacers

whats up fellas,

im looking for the best spacers money could buy (quailty), now my promblem is that i dont have a clue on how many millimeters should i get. currently im dropped on Tein S-techs, which is a low drop, front and back (mostly rear) and im trying to have no gaps, what spacers would be the best for me, without any rubbing issues? im planning to get coilovers by x-mas, and my car would will be dropped low. im thinking 20-25mm in the front and the rear i dunno lol Stock 19" rims btw

Thanks alot for helping out

With the stock 19's I think most are doing 10mm in the front and 15mm in the rear and going with either the Eibachs or the Ichiba's

did some research, and i will be getting ebiach spacers, im thinking of doing 20mm in the rear and 15mm in the front? how does this sound? safe? will have any rubbing issues? member x'sG37_MIA has 15mm's in the rear it looks really good, do you guys think i could go another 5mm? i dont have a camber kit.

heres a pic of x'sG37_MIA with 15mm spacers with camber kit.

^ thanks on the info, i think ill go with 15mm all around, im just afraid that i dont have a camber kit in the rear and without it my wheels wont look spaced out? GiGGaplease i read your thread ( https://www.myg37.com/forums/picture-share-g-coupe/183568-vr-with-spacers-on-stockies.html ) did you have a camber kit? and were they 25mm or 20mm?

thanks alot

I am in the same boat as you, I would like to get 20mm in the back, not sure how much it is going to stick out though.

You should go with ICHIBA Spacers. Their simply bolt on, you can get em from HPAutowrks.om

I am pretty sure that both Eibach and Ichiba offer bolt on in 15, 20 and 25mm sizes.
