Spacers for BBS CH's w KW V1

bigdaddycane · 12-06-2010, 08:08 AM

Guys,

I am running 19" BBS CHs with KW V1 suspension. The drop is not too aggressive and I wanted to know what is the max spacer I can use in the front and the rear to give the wheels a more aggressive profile.

I've been told 5mm in the front, 15mm in the rear.

suggestions?

What are the wheel specs (width & offset) that you are using so we can better help you with suggested spacer sizing?

i think those wheels have a 40 offset on the front, and 35 rear.

if thats the case id do 10mm/12mm

sorry, yeah, should have added that.

You have the offsets backwards

Fronts 35mm
Rear 40mm

The rear has a lot of room, the front not so much, that's why I was thinking 5mm or 10 max in the front.

oh yeah then do 10/18. flush it.
