wheel spacer sizes..?

[Gibbo4k]

hello all..
im looking at getting some wheel spacers for my 182. it has standard wheels with 205/45/16s its lowered on coilovers but not super low and im wanting to bring the wheels out into the arch a bit more.. ive tried some old 10mm ones i had just to see what it looked like and i was happy with this.. so wanting some proper ones really so if someone can point me in the direction of where to get some please.. and any advice on sizes to go for.. i didnt drive it on the 10mm ones but looked plenty of clearance.. i dont really want the wheels rubbing on the arches as if this is the case ill stay as it is...
any advice welcome..

FK or Eibach are all id use.. ive got 15mm and 25mm cant remember which way round though off the top off my head

you can go 20mm on the front depending on height with that wheel combo and tyre and 15mm rear mine is quite low and i only get minour rubbing when really pushing the car (only on tight corners and ast coilovers tho)

15mm all round on mine (see below), but agree with Dan - FK or Eibach only. Mine are Eibach. I get very minor rubbing on track days when its close to getting out of shape, quite a good indicator

Hope that helps decide.

15mm back 20mm or 25mm front is the normal size people go for. If you like to push your car don't buy sh*t

Do you just have to add 15mm to the length of your original stud??

I cant go more than 5mm front or rear or they rub like f**k, had 25's at the front before coilovers so obviously the extra drop that has alot to do with it Need to bash my front bumper mount out of the way to help things and I need my rear arches rolled to go any lower, which I won't anyway as its sitting perfect Had 15's on the front of my old ph2 with 2 different types of coilovers before without an issue, very strange as it seems to differ from car to car :S
