sorry ...a bit blur on wheel and tyre area..what do u mean by spacer??? what is the fuction of wheel spacer?? am i supposed to put the spacer if i wanna change to a bigger rims???
If the wheel is inset, it looks tiny in the wheel well with the narrow tires.
Most people say 12mm is good. I plan to try it. 15mm is probably fine as well.
