Default Wheel spacer suggestion...

I hope this is the right forum for this question, but I want to widen that rear stance a little bit, while still using the original studs. What size should I go with? I did some searching, but couldn't really find answers seeing as how "spacer" returns a bunch of other results.

25mm has enough clearance to use a slip-on spacer without having to remove the original studs. That size of a spacer will bring the tires out flush with the fender. I recommend doing the front wheels also if you're going to add spacers to the rear.

Anything else.... is just retarded.

Why dont you just get spacers w/ built in studs? 20mm 25mm is what mostly everybody runs on stock wheels. I went 25mm 30mm for an extreme flush look.

I saw pics of 25, and I thought it was a bit aggressive, possibly bordering some rubbing issues. I'd probably wanna go for something more low-key.

I'm dropped on hotchkis and have no rubbing issues w/ spirited driving. If you want low key. Try a 15mm 20mm set up.

If you're going to do it, do it. There's no rubbing issue with 25.
