Default Spacers?...Volks?...+24 in the rear

So just received my new set of Volk GTFs thanks to JDMGee35, offset is +17 in the front which is perfect but +24 on the rear, what size spacer would i need for a more aggressive look? My old 2 sets of Volks in the rear were +18, if anyone could help me out that'd be great...and yes i did search nothing found to these specs though.

Why not try placing them on the Z and deciding how aggressive you should buy?

Well my old wheels i had Volk GTS were +17/+18 and i loved the setup very aggressive, however the rears for the new GTFs are +24, I'm wondering what i would need to get back to 18 lol...pictures would be nice however i cant figure out the best way to upload them to this website with a decent resolution, my camera takes them too big.

Assuming your old and new wheels are the dame width, it's as simple as 24-18=? The overall look will also come down to your specific tire choice (brand, model and size together) height and alignment specs

Dunno if you want a spacer for the front or rear or both, but heres a pic of my Volk GTC +24 rear with 285 tire on a 10.5" wheel...no spacer
