I need a second opinion on which spacer size to order for my rear wheels. My rear needs to come out a bit to get the look I'm going for. I gotta include my arches are being pulled and flared to sit flush with the lip when the car is on the ground
My original et: 50rear 42front
I machined the faces a bit to reverse mount so I maybe lost 1mm. I'm trying to decide if I should choose a 15 or 20mm spacer. I don't want to poke out so much that the rears lose proportioning to the front. I'd rather look a little less staggered then have hella rear poke so that's why I'm hesitant to just order in the 20's and call it a day. Mainly I'm tired of returning product and slowing the project down as well.
Looking at these: http://www.ecstuning.com/Volkswagen-Golf_V--2.0T/Wheels/Spacers/ES5111/
or maybe the DR series in a 15mm.
I only have so much summer driving available in the PNW and times running out, every week matters!
