2011 Vantage S spacers

Anyone had the H&R 15 and 20 spacers done on the S ? is there any issues due to the wider S tire?

I recommend doing +15mm in the front and +20mm in the rear. Keep in mind that you will need to run extended studs to compensate the thickness of the spacers and will possibly need different lugnuts (14mm x 2.0) to match as well.

Info on V8VS wheels and offsets with spacers:
Front: 8.5" +49 (OEM) plus 15mm spacer equals +34mm offset
Rear: 10" +59 (OEM) plus 20mmspacer equals +39mm offset

My personal opinion is to only add spacers if you plan on lowering the car to "flush" out the wheels and get rid of the ride height. You will be more at risk with the carbon fiber splitter but the overall "stance" of the V8VS will be much more fitting and aggressive.

Good luck...!

I like my ride hight, just want to push it out a little for the look and feel. Would that be a problem with the stock wheel and hight? Would it still be ok with the 15 and 20?

No not at all. I know there were plenty of owners who added spacers to OEM wheels with OEM ride height. Me personally, for all the effort it will cause with needed extend studs and maybe lugs, I would just look at custom wheel options
