Get em!! Depends on your current stance at the moment on what size, 10 on from 15 on rear isn't a bad option though!

Ive got FK hubcentric ones Kenny 17mm back and front. Just makes the stance a little bit better looking.
Got them from this guy. Prices are really good as he gets stuff direct from Germany.

got any fitted photos joe?
17 mm would take standard wheels down to an et 21, surely that sticks out of the arches, my tt comps are et 32 and are all but level with the arches

Dont have any pics of them fitted with my RH Cups on. Yeh they do stick out minimally past the arch but the streched tyres are still under the arches.
I got them because I am putting a set of BBS RX2'S on the car (they are getting a refurb at the moment) which standard et is 42 so wanted them to stick out a bit more.

What size do u recommend for me then with standard Monzas? Dont wanna have then stickin out by the arch. Level or just under will do.

What width are monzas 6-6.5? I'd say probably 10-15mm for a subtle but nice stance

i've got 20mm hubcentric h&r spacers on the rear of the ibiza, gives the rear a nice girth 
and the wheels are still just within arch. i'm running the standard seat wheels that are 6.5J and ET43.

the ones that guy uses are as follows
Technically spacers are for "off road use only" - so good thing these pictures are taken off a public road - but they are good H&R hubcentric versions with the correct length high tensile ball seat bolts with the German certification papers.

So spacers aren't road legal?
