Please advise on Spacer Width for an 03 4S???

Guys,

Here's the deal, looking to slap a set of spacers on the 4S. Currently got Champion RG5B's (19x11 & 19x8.5 in standard widebody fitment) on the car and lowered on some H&R Springs. Little negative camber on the rears. So, if I'm looking for a flush mount from the top at least (considering negative camber on the bottom rears), should I get 5MM, 7MM, "X"MM ?????

Also, my concern is that with the negative camber and the positioning of the "CENTER" of the wheel/tire will shift outward, I'm thinking the inner tread will be eaten up quickly. Is that correct?

Thanks for any help you guys can provide.

Berk

Cool

You really think you need any?

I thought about it and tried a set of 7mm that were about perfect f&r.

In the end, I decided not to use them.

Mine would sit way out at the bottom w/ my neg camber, just to get the top flush.

Hey Terry!! How you doing bud?

That's the thing. I was also thinking the same thing. 7MM just didn't seem like enough, but I'm guessing they are. The concern is the bottoms would stick out. I think you sold yours right? If not, I'll buy them to try them out at least.

When're you getting that TT kit bud?? I housed an M3 last week and it felt GREAT!!!! hahahahahahahhaa.....

boochook,

What do you want for them and do they have the longer bolts?
