Can't decide between 15mm and 20mm spacer for the front- Pics inside
 
4 Attachment(s)
My rears are perfect without spacers, but I'm not happy with the front. 19x8.5 or 9 with a 245/35/19. I measured from the tire right to the edge of the fenders and it is exactly 20mm. My tires are square on the rim and not stretched or past the lip.

What I am wondering is, will my tires rub at stock height if it is totally flush with the fender? Do people actually roll the front fenders or not? I will be having the rears rolled next week.

One other issue I have since swapping my stockers is that my car seems to want to "wobble" in the rear almost as if the suspension is on the x axis rather than the y axis when I go over bumps. It's more noticable at highway speed. Rears are 19x10 295/30/19. The are DPEs so I do not know the offsets. Is this because of the width difference between front and rear? Is it bumpsteer?

Thanks

Thanks for the tip, but boost and paint are my priority right now.

I would do 15, to be totally flush you need camber and some stretch.

Yea, but I had a mishap a couple weeks ago and my front end is effed up. Not to mention a nice dent over my right read quarter....

I had a 20x8.5 +5(+25 with a 20mm spacer) with a 245/35/20 and it didn't rub... Before using the 20mm spacer I had a 25mm spacer and it rubbed... And I was lowered 1"... I know you have 19's but I hope some of this info helps... GL
