I'm confused.

What exactly are you asking? 25mm spacers? What width and offset are your wheels to begin with?

what we're asking is, what tire/wheel combo do you plan on using these 25mm spacers for?

are you using these spacers on stock rays? base 18's? 19x9.5 +22 in the Front and 19x10.5 +12 in the Rear? beefy tires? stretched tires? need more information.

Tell us your ride height or what springs/coils you're on, how wide your wheels are, what offset your wheels are, and what tire size you plan on running. We will let you know what camber setting you should be at.

Or you could make it even simpler for you and tell us what you plan on doing with your car. Hellaflush? Mexipoke? Slammed and tucked? Meaty tires because racecar? 4x4?

Any reason you want such large spacers/positive camber?

Can't give u camber numbers but w/front/rear camber kits my alignment guy said he squeezed as much as he could to get me close 2 spec. Tire wear is very minimal and I'm totally digging the stance.I'm running 20mmf/25mmr stock rays with inch drop on coils. No rubbing in the rear but some in the front over rough roads. Got a few pics in my album.

Same here. -2.5 rear. With 25mm on stock rays and swifts. I could go to -2.0 and not rub.

I'm on stock rays, stock size tires (Hankook V12 Evos), KWV3 (pretty sure they're set lower than Swift springs).

30mm spacer in the rear on stock alignment. No issues whatsoever.
