Is this even possible? Without rubbing?

I see alot of you guys run the 12mm spacers but there seems to be a lot of the guard left to fill... Looks like 20mm ones would fit even without rolling guards?

Thanks happy

I've got 20.5mm spacers and lowered around 40/45mm on coilovers. Never scrapped or rubbed once and the back, although it looks a tight fit there is still quite a bit of room left between the arch and the wheel.

Thanks bud, that's exactly what I wanted to know!

So no problems even with people in the back?

No never had a problem, I've never had my car full of people to be honest but I have had a few trips to Homebase recently with 90litre bags of bark plus tables and chairs and other gardening stuff in the back and it's never made a sound lol.

I have Eiback pro kit (-35mm) and 20mm spacers. I think it looks just right and I've never had a problem with rubbing.

it depends on your wheels, standard st's you can get away with the 20mm but my wheels are a wider offset

im lowered 45mm at the back and 40mm at the front with no problems, on pro race 3 alloys

i have had the front arches rolled though
