I've searched and searched, on and off zilvia many times. And i still can't find an answer, can someone give me an opinion on what size spacers i will need if i need them? or steer me in the proper route

Alright so i just picked up some Sportmax 006 17x9 +20. right now they have Kumho Ecta 225/50R17 all around, the rears fit fine but the front's rub on my springs. I also have a pair of Pirelli 245/45/17 and a pair of Kumho Ecta 235/45/17. My question is what size spacers would you recommend for the 225/50R17 or do you think if i swapped the fronts with one of the other pairs of tires i have would they clear?

I'm running KYB GR2 struts + Eibach Sportline lowering springs.

And i know, this is a really open ended question and i probably won't get a precise answer but if anyone has any input that would help me out alot.

Thanks

Try running a 5mm spacer to see if that clears, if not 10mm should work, hope your fenders are rolled.

Thanks for the info, 5mm for the 225/50/R17 Kumho Ecta up front or one of the other pairs?

Alright so i just picked up wheel spacers at a local shop. Opinion on this setup, i will be installing this all tomorrow.

Fronts:
Rim: 17x9 +20
tire: 235/45/17
spacer: 8mm
suspension: KYB GR2/Eibach Sportline

Rear:
Rim: 17x9 +20
tire: 225/50/R17
spacer: none
suspension: KYB GR2/Eibach Sportline


Also, do you think i will need to roll the fenders with these specs?
