    most have fitted 15 mm i think. i have 15 mm waiting to go.

    advice is a bit of a mess. I’ve had some companies recommending 20 mm. others, will not provide more than 12.5 mm. so, its anyone’s guess…

    We need pictures and words about this. How does it look with 20 compared to 15mm? How does it feel on track with spacers, better to get them off?

    It’ll look brilliant until your front springs are under compression as you enter a corner with some lock on then your tyre will flare your arch all on its own

    I’ve got eibach 15mm spacers on mine.

    It handles a lot better on track than without.

    20 mm lowered on H&R springs.

    That made a really good difference.

    It’s still on standard camber, but it’s a funny thing to mess about with plus it knackers the edge of the tyres too quickly.

    i was undecided about the thickness of the spacers so went for 15mm.

    it doesn’t go anywhere near the wheel arches

    I wouldn’t use 20mm spacers, but I would lower it 20mm

    Nice looking Motor mate!! Did you get your Mishimoto Intercooler fitted??

    I’ve got 15mm H&R Spacers with Mountune Springs, the car looks so much better lowered a bit and with Spacers fitted!!

    Cheers, Marc.
