Default I sought her advice just before doing mine

Per her advice 25mm seemed a little too much in the back for stock wheels. I agreed. I just did 20mm in the back and they turned out great. Just enough space to make a difference.

Besides, going more than 20mm you'll need to bolt the spacer to the rotor then bolt the wheel to the spacer. At least one person posted a problem with bolts seizing with this setup and having to have them blown off with something of a hydraulic hammer.

I'll see if I can get you some "after" pictures later today or tomorrow.

and I doubt the extra 5mm will easily be discernable in a picture.

Default In my Pic Poster there should be at least after pics, not sure if I have before ones.

Do 10 or 15 in the front and 20 in the rear.
