new shoes...need offset help

Hey guys,

I just had eibach springs put on my G, and my new wheels, MRR GT1s. I like the look alot, but I think I may want to add some spacers to the rear wheels. I do not understand offsets that well, so I want to make sure I order the correct spacers.

First of all, the wheels are:

20x8.5 offset 20 on the front
20x10 offset 43 on the rear.

The front tires are basically exactly where I want them to be, but the rears seem to be tucked a bit more than I would like. I am sure that spacers can fix this, but I do not know if I should get 15mm, 20mm etc.. I just want the rear to be at about the same place as the front, which is basically flush with the well.

Any advice is appreciated!

What size tires you running in the back? If you're running a 275 or 285...no more than 10mm. something more stretched...like a 255 or maybe a 265 may fit with 15mm and some camber. But 10mm you're pretty safe

If running 275 or 285, I would do 10mm spacers.
