I actually went with 40 in the front because I was afraid the 35 would leave too much wheel gap (hahah now I know).

The 5mm in the rear is ultimately for looks. Since the fronts always stick out a lil more than the rear; I wanted to even it out with the spacer. The 255's would of cleared inside with or without the spacer.

Important question: how much camber are you running front and rear. Looks like with -2.0 rear and track like -2.5 or more up front and those would tuck.......

Haven't touched anything yet; camber plates are still set in the middle. Rear is natural cambered. I do want to camber in the front a little, I'll probably mess around with it in a couple weeks.
