If u have the 18s, you need about 35mm spacers all around cause they are thinner but I would just get different wheels. They are really not that appealing IMO as well

I havent seen any 370s with base 18s that look good. I dont think I have seen any 370s with aftermarket 18s at all, which is a shame because I like 18's. There are more options and tires are cheaper.

H&R doesn't offer DRS 25mm if I'm not mistaken?

Yeah I think they only offer DRM 25mm. But 25mm DRM will fit the front. 20mm DRM might and 15mm DRM won't.

Thanks, just bought 20/25 and very happy. However 1 rear wheel appear to stick out a bit more than the other, And looks like it has negative camber maybe?

Btw, I just install my re11 and it seems these tires are more meaty compare to the stock potenza which led to my rear stick out quite a bit so dropping too low will require negative camber or it will rub

Hey Bud I have the Eibach drop as well, was thinking of 25mm as well so no rub at all? I still have the 245/19/40 stock Rays

20mm DRM on the front will fit with the newest generation of Sport Rays.
I have them.
I had no issues with the lugs sticking out beyond the face of the spacers and contacting the wheels. There are large openings in the wheels.
I have a few pics showing a lug sitting in the openings on the backside of the wheels.
However, something rubs at times. I am now suspecting after reading this thread it might just be the front tires. I have heard what I thought was the front lip or those 'aero' thingys in front of the wheels making contact at times, but now I'm starting to think its the wheels. Time to start looking for signs of that.

I ran 20mm H&R spacers on the OEM Rays with Swift springs a while back, and during full suspension compression, the tires would slightly rub on a plastic tab somewhere on the fender liners. I was concerned at first, but it wasn't really a big deal. Unless your car is super low, the air guides you mentioned won't come in contact with anything.
