    i am wanting to get wheel spacers for the rear wheels, but i dont know what size. i was wondering if 38mm would be too much? i want to at least get 25mm.

    Is it for looks or handling (widening the track)? If it's for looks then 25mm spacers bring the wheels in line with the bodywork pretty well. I don't subscribe to some of the theories about spacers being dangerous but, for me, 38mm may be moving into slightly more dodgy territory. I have 25mm Eibach spacers but I think these are discontinued now. H&R seems the most prevalent choice over here.

    If you really wanted to go for the muscle car look you can always go for some low offset wheels.

    Cheers,
    Jon

    i was just wanting the rear wheels to fill up the space more because they're really tucked in there.

    i was just talking with my mate whos got a 185 and he offered me a set of 25mm spacers from TC Sportline coc his new wheels have a fairly crazy offset.
    Havent been able to find much on how reliable the brand is, has anyone experienced them before, im not overly fussed but he offered them fairly cheap

    cheers
