Default What size spacers

Sup everyone

i got some ssr d5r
19x9 +24 255/35
19x10.5 +30 275/35
Sitting on Tein Basic cut spring mount in rears. The front rubs bad when i turn going up like the driveway...or bumps...

I'm trying to decide what size spacers do i need to get a flush look without rubbing. I guess I have to raise the front up...but then again I see all these cars with lower offset and slammed with no problem...

I'm not sure what the problem is, maybe your tires? Your camber is probably the reason though. I was SLAMMED in the front with emo's at +20, with a 20mm spacer on top of that, never had a problem.

I ran a 19X9 +22 wheel with a 275/35/19 tire and I was really low and had no rubbing problems.

I don't know. You have the car in front of you not me. How much space do you have between the tire and fender? 10 mm? 20 mm? There you go.

You guys think 20mm all around would be good?
