Anyone have a setup of 15mm spacers in front and 20 rear?

ctzn · 01-07-2010, 01:10 AM

Just received my H&R's today so thanks Josh. My car is in right now getting the wheels powder coated, but this weekend the sways and the spacers go on so I'll snap a few shots and post up some before and afters...

$$ is still preventing me from getting mine installed. I have a box full of mods (all paid for) waiting at Z Car Garage. Hopefully later this month for the install and pics.

Will be 15 mm fr 25 mm rr (H&R) dropped with Eibach on sport 19" Rays wheels.

As promised.

H&R 15mm Front + H&R 20mm Rear. Remember I have TONS of negative camber on the front, which is why it looks in a little still. On a less aggressive alignment, the wheel would be flush like the rear one is.

well played

so long story short: yes 15/20 setup is great on stock rims, right? i've been trying to tell this to people forever!

so does it look goofy having your calipers set back further from the wheel with the spacers installed? I've never seen a pic of this. I have the same size H&R spacers but have not put them on yet, thinking I might get wheels instead...

RCZ · 01-15-2010, 02:07 PM

^ Nah you don't even notice that difference.

RCZ · 01-15-2010, 02:29 PM

Yep. I think its the best for stock wheels.

Any performance benefit from the H&R 15/20 spacers?

I felt the car a bit slower when installed spacers on my G

It has a camber kit... the front was like -2.6 or something along those lines.

I'm looking at spacers to fix the ridiculous look of my rear winter rims (way too sunken in). While 25mm would be ideal for the winter rims, I'd like to use the spacers for my 19" Rays in the warmer months. I'm guessing that 25mm on the rear and no spacers up front with the Rays will look stupid? Any thoughts?

I could go 20mm rear, which would at least be some improvement in the winter and ideal in the summer. Don't really want to install front spacers though...

cptspeed · 01-21-2010, 09:15 PM

I don't think it would look stupid. I ran w/20's in the back and none in the front for 3 months. Looks good to me.

ZForce · 01-22-2010, 12:18 AM

Something to consider if you go with H&R spacer, that’s if it makes any difference.

25 mm spacers will be bolt on.
20 mm spacers will require stud replacement.

Would the handling be off from such a staggered stance from the OEM setup? I have heard of a squared off stance or with a 5-10 mm difference from the front to rear.
