spacers for stock wheels

Don't mean to bring this thread back up but I have been reading around the Forum and a lot of people have noted that with the Stock 17x8 98 GS Rims you should only do a max of 20mm, and about 25mm in the rear. Of course whazzzzuup has 33 in the front and 38 in the back. So what is the deal. I would love to have the Flush set up whazzzzuup has, but I really don't want to buy spacers that are too large.

I have one pair of 25mm spacers For Sale. Ichiba vII will make a fs thread soon or pm me
Some pics of my car, same size wheels as oem 17x8, these came off a gs350
Im lowered on Tanabe DF210 springs
Tire size is 225/55/17
I have 25mm on rear, nothing up front.
I highly recommend to do 25mm Rear and 15mm Front. I agree the max would be 20mm up front, I say 15mm front only because I dont think it will look balanced with the rear if the front is so spaced out.
Keep in mind 25mm is pretty much 1 inch

I agree. I rolled one time around the block with stacked spacers. I wouldn't recommend it for prolonged use. If you guys want to play it safe (not as aggressive), a 30mm for the front and 35mm in the rear will have more than 5mm of clearance. To elaborate, that's on stock non-rolled/cut/shaved fenders.

You can buy 38mm spacers. I just don't see why so many people say anything above 25mm won't fit. I think I'm going to try and do 20mm in front and 27mm in the rear

I'm looking to get some for my car too. I think I decided on the H&R spacers. Their products always seem to fit right and are good quality. Here's the link: http://www.trakplus.com/. I have 18 x 8 wheels with 245/40 tires in front and 275/35 tires in the rear. From what I've read I'll probably go with 15mm spacers up front and 20mm in the rear. With the 275s in the back the 20mm spacers should make them fit pretty flush.
