Anyone using 25mm spacers?

[jfirusta]

Does anyone have the Adaptech 25mm spacers? I'd love to see some photos.

I have 20mm spacers on my RS, fit flush with the fenders. 25mm might be pushing it IMO.

I have 25s. They're absolutely perfect for what I was going for.

But that's it man, that's beautifully perfect. Thank you!

I personally wouldn't try 25 on a lowered car. It looks like Ashes to Armor is stock ride height.

Just speaking from my personal experience, 20mm on my car with eibach lowering springs would sometimes touch the tire to the inside of the fender in the rear on bigger bumps. This was with a 205 width tire.

Weird. I have 5 mm's and I'm flush. I think the wheel spacing/offset can play a big part too.

Exactly. You're not running a factory 6.5 wide +42 wheel are you?

 

[Natesriv]

no. I'm 8" with a 30'ish something offset. I'm thinking 35 or 38...it's buried in a post here somewhere...

I just installed 25mm spacers on mine today. I'm on LTZ wheels, pretty sure 205 wide tires, and kspeed/storm lowering springs. It's racecar flush in the front (looks like it may have added a hair of camber), so satisfying. Rear is pretty close if not perfectly flush and I could go a LITTLE wider there if I wanted. I could get pics tomorrow.

Any pics yet?

I concur. I have 20mm on the front though would've been fine with 25

I have 25 mm on the front, and 32 mm on the rear. Running 17x8.5 in the front, and 17x9.5 in the rear. The front is perfect. The rear sometimes would rub when I had coilovers.

After installing wheel spacers, have any of you guys used special lugs on them? I've seen some website recommending you purchase "extended reach lugs" to make sure they engage as much as they would with stock setup. Is this really necessary?

Reviving this thread because I'm finally ready to add lowering springs and spacers. Do the Adaptec 15mm-25mm spacers require new lug nut studs?

Nope! The spacers have lug studs on them and come with lug nuts to secure to the hub. So you can just use your stuck lugs nuts to secure the wheel to the spacer's studs and you're good to go! :banana:

Those are dope.

PS how does that roof rack work for you? Worth the dough?

It's absolutely worth the money. I use it in the winter with a Rhino Rack snowboard carrier and have a light bar attached to the front for year-round country road driving, so it serves a couple purposes

stretched tires

Stock Kumho ? Hankook I mean I was thinking of this as well the 25 would need a slight stretch in the tire to not rub I'm on coil overs used to run so low never rubbed tire RS wheels plenty of front bumper though.I was thinking of doing the same but wait till I need new tires then go 195 45 or 40 so I don't rub ...

I think it looks tuff with the wheels 5mm wider in the back gives it a performance stance .
