15 mm front 20 mm rear for maximum flush-ness w/o any rubbing? please help! thanks.
bump...anybody have advice on this? i got the springs already now and the car is about 1.25 inches lower all around...want my ap2v1 wheels to sit as flush as possible without having to roll the fenders. just not sure which size to get here.

I just put on 15f/17r on stock suspension AP2v2. I have Swift Spec-R, but they're not being installed until this weekend. I haven't rolled touched the fenders at all. If you wait a week, I'll probalby have pics up for you and ready to tell you if it rubs or needs a fender roll.

Anyone have their studs in their options selects spin on them?

3 of my studs couldn't make torque.

I emailed them, and they sent a replacement package out. I thought it was a new spacer...it was 3 new studs lol

So now the entire package is going back and the 70 bucks goes towards my new wheels anyways. I was just getting impatient that I couldn't find anything lol

Ok I literally just spent an 2 hours reading this thread, I have my rear fenders rolled and rear tab relocated. My front fenders aren't rolled but the tabs are bent up. What spacers would some of you gurus go with, running a 225 front and 255 rear with bf goodrich kdw2's on buddyclub n+'s I want to be to the no fender gap length, no lower, edge of the fender parallel with the top of the tire. LMK guys

Mine are in a box on their way back. I don't want a part on my car like that lol

If I need spacers in the future, H&R it is.
