whats the best size spacer for the fronts without any rubbing issues? i have H&R 15mm in the rears and noticed that the fronts need to be pushed out a bit as well until i get my 167's. i have an m kit on order and will soon have it installed on my stock 18's and just want a nice aggresive look. im on stock sport suspension.

thanks in advance guys

I dont know the size but I can give you some tip if you do get spacer.
make shore they are custom make and do not buy uliversel fits.

5mm in front will make it flush with the fender, and get H&Rs.
Im running 15mm in the rear and 5mm in the front.

nerweezy will pm you in the next 2 minutes with the pricing jk.

+1, I'd like to see what it looks like too. I am thinking about maybe running spacers for a little while until I decide on wheels.
