17mm spacers up front

i am running 7mm spacers up front with the stock 19x8 wheel

with the -1.5 deg camber looks like i can go at least another 10 mm of spacer.

anyone running 17mm spacers up front? pic would be great.

i think i run stock 8" rims with 15mm spacers as front suspension is set for 9" wide rims. works fine, not sure what you ask about. i just want upper tire edge to be about of in-between of quater-inch to half-inch behind the outer edge of a fender so it would not rub at plastic liner in a turn, but not deeper.
try to put it on and jump on a car to see how front wheel dives in and if it hits liner/fender or not. at 1.5 degrees it is not going to be much of a dive, with my 3 degrees there is a bit more.
