Default Another Spacer Help Post... LOL... confused on the math

I have axis wheels with ET 40 rear on a 19 X 9.5 rim. Currently running a 15mm spacer.

I think the rear looks perfect flush with the fender lip.

I decided I need a front spacer to match. Looking at meems posts here is what I think.

I need a 10mm spacer for the front. The front wheel is a 19 X 8.5 wheel with an ET30.

So back would be 40 - 15 = 25
front is 35 - 10 = 25

But rear is wider so that makes up for the track difference ?

Actually the rear track is narrower than the front by 18mm...

Default Ooh, I posted this on an earlier spacer question but...>

So what if you just get like 18mm spacers for the rear? Would that ride nice seeing that the front and rear track are just about equal?

Default You would need 9mm on the back not 18mm...

9 per side = 18. Most run 15 on front and 25 on back .
