Spacers & Springs

Post by Clint »

I'm planning on putting 20mm back and 15mm front spacers on a 6C, are other people running similar spacers, especially anyone that is running with 35/55mm springs - any issues?

Other than fitting them, are there other things I should consider such as geting the wheels realigned, etc?

Cheers for the advice!

:D

I'm currently using 15mm spacers on front and rear with 17x7J ET42 205/40/r17 without any problems. 20mm wouldn't be a problem either. It really depends on the rims you are using, which offset and width and stuff. However I'm a little bit higher then you. 35/45mm with Bilstein B14 coilovers. I personally think there is no need to re-align your wheels.

Hope this helps you a little bit :)

Did you had to replace the bolts on all wheels? or just the rear ?
Thanks.
