Amazon wheel spacers

[BigBoo]

My Amazon has 15" 5.5j GT rims with 195/65 tyres and the car is lowered on -30mm progressive sport springs with Bilstein dampers.

I'd like to fit wheel spacers but I'm unsure of size, I'm thinking 10mm all round? or perhaps 20mm? any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Are you doing this to push the tyres out to fill the arches? Just drop a weighted string of the inner wheel arch lip and measure to the widest part of the tyre that’s how much you can space out, you may need to change wheel studs to longer ones and adding spacers to the front will make the steering heavier as your increasing scrub radius

Yes, it's a mission to fill the arches, the ride height is spot on but I just feel the wheels could come out a bit.
Many thanks for the info Rustinmotion I'll have a measure up and see whats what.

These (30mm I think) work really well on my Amazon:



... but it has not been lowered.



They were cheap as well, about £60/set if I recall.
