10mm Front 20mm Rear
I just finished putting Kics Project Spacers 10mm Front & 20mm Rear on the car. I have the O.Z 3-peice Superleggeras F19x9.5 +29 /R19x10.5 +34 with Nitto Invo Front 255/35 Rear 305/30 tires.
I had to roll the rear fenders to get the wheels/tires flush with the outside of the fender well. With the suspension fully compressed the tire to fender clearance is about 3 to 5 mm at the top. I used the hub centric rings for the rears even though they said that it was not required. The wheels seemed to be a lot easier to line up with them.
As for the fronts I had to trim my stock studs to allow for wheel to spacer clearance. This was not that hard and I only trimmed 5mm off the stock studs. The hardest part was growing enough bawls to cut the studs. Finished product looks awesome and the wheels are flush with the fender wells.
I could have gone with 25mm or 30mm with a stretched tire setup, but I need the rubber.
Traction = Good

The 305's fit and did not rub before the fenders were rolled. After the C-West side skirts went on the wheels looked to "sunk in" in the fender wells. That is the reason for the spacers. I wanted a more agressive stance with the wide rubber. I would go 315 or bigger but the rim is a 10.5" and 305 is about the widest I can go with out the tire looking stupid on the wheel.
