Yea, 12mm spacers front and rear.

Thanks! Yes it is, I polished it and coated it with Carpro CQuartz UK shortly after I bought it last year.

Glad to see this thread still doing good.

Reviving

[justinco]

New front lip and plate for me! (HT Autos lip)

[justinco]

Got a deal I couldn't pass up on a set of Volk CE28SL's in pressed graphite, from a local buddy of mine.

18x9.5" +45
255/35R18 Bridgestone RE71RS

This fits with my Eibach lowering springs and OEM shocks, but, I have a few mods to make it work (it's tight on front spring perch).

Front:
Pedders front top hats
SPC camber bolts (maxed out)
Shaved fenders
12mm spacer

Rear:
Fits with just springs, no spacer
Shaved fenders and trimmed flare piece

This looks exceptional. I didn't know you could fit a 9.5 wide on these cars without coilovers. I always assumed the barrel was too wide since the OEM struts are quite beefy.

Out of curiosity, do you think you would have run into the same issues with a 9.5 Wide +40 set running 245's? I am contemplating hunting down a 24' with the Sachs dampers and brembos when they release. I'd probably just do swings over the dampers.

I think with that offset, the front would require a little less spacer. But the rear would be tighter on the fender, needing more camber. Still be a close fit I'd think?
