25mm may be a bit much, especially if you're lowered. I had 20mm all around when I had my coupe 19s installed and they were rubbing in the rear over speed bumps, but they're perfect in the front, granted I was lowered on Eibach springs and they tend to sag a little in the rear. I need to order a set of 15mm for the rear to try it again.

I am lowered on BC coils I was deciding between the 20mm spacers or the 25mm.

20mm will obviously be safer but I think 25mm will get me closer to the specs I am running now and I don't rub at all.

For winter-only, I've got 15mm Spacer Adapters from B2AutoDesigns.com. Price was right, quality seems excellent.

Wheel Adapters, Wheel Spacers, Hub Rings, and much more! | Motorsport Tech

Custom made to order, right here in the USA with a lifetime warranty

Their website is kinda difficult to navigate and order from. I called them up since they didn't list 15mm, but they made them for me, no problems.

Good luck. What's the over/under on hours and alcohol consumption

Rotors should be easy. I'd imagine coilovers would be on par with springs and shocks. Camber arms might be a bitc*.

Do you have air tools?

Rotors 2 to 3 hours tops.

Coilovers and arms, who knows. I'm not looking forward to grinding a bigger whole on the control arm mount for my toe bolts.

My question is,

Should I just install the camber arms, go get an alignment and see if they can get my toe in spec with the stock toe bolt or just do it right the first time and get er done?

Beer consumption will depend on when I finish this job which is hopefully in less than 5 hours.

That depends....would they charge you twice for the alignment? If so, go all in.

I must be the only one who drinks while I do installs
