BBS LM's w/ spacers
Hey guys, I'm currently running 245/35/19 in the front and 275/30/19 rear. What size spacers can i use so my wheels sit flush with the fenders? I'm looking for a wider stance. Something just doesn't look right to me with my setup. Sometimes the back wheels actually look smaller then the front. The front looks pretty flush but the back is set in. I bought the car used and don't even know what drop is on there but it doesn't look stock. This is how the car looks now... Any help is much appreciated!

Looks like it is stock ride height right now. But you could probably get away with 5mm spacers in the rear.

measure your gap before you buy spacers, and that is not lowered.

Like Bartender said above, measuring the gap is the safest route to go. Each car is setup differently and a recommendation for one may be different for another.

AHHH
 I'd love too but NY roads are unforgiving. Even my own driveway eats my bumper. |
