I just fitted these wheels to my S3 today, did you keep the 20mm rear and 15mm front spacers? I've got a set but waiting on the tapered bolts to arrive to use them. Any rubbing issues etc?
@vwrichАй бұрын
i ended up keeping the spacers on. no real rubbing
@Fielder5757Ай бұрын
@vwrich thanks dude. Wheels pacers are on now. Had to drop to a 15mm spacer rear and 12mm front in the end but it's all on and looking great.
