Sorry to have to start another thread on thai subject but I've read every thread so far and there's no definitive answer!!

I'm currently running standard suspension and standard wheel wth 225-40-18's on the front and 295-35-18's on the rear.

What spacers have people used with this set up?

Thanks
 
Think it should be 17mm rear and 5mm front spacers.

My 4s had 17mm rear fitted when ordered but no spacer at the front.

Hope this helps.
 
Thanks bud.

It seems that some people have 17's and some have 15's and some rub and some don't! I know that tyre choice is critical in some applications as the shoulder profile can be square or rounded from different manufacturers.
The previous threads are saying that 15mm on the rear and 7mm on the front but again, some are saying that they have 15mm front and rear with no rubbing at all!

But then most people are omitting the size and make of their tyre so it's quite difficult to work out which is which.

I think I'll go down to my local supplier and get them to try a few combinations on when the new tyres are fitted and see which work.
