KW V2 Coilover Front Rubbing on 2010 MCS
 
Guys,

I searched on the forum but was hoping to get some clarity on the particular issue I am having after installing KW V2 Coilovers on my 2010 MCS.

I'm running stock 17" S-Lite wheels (+48 offset) with 205/45/17 tires.

What spacers do I need for the front so that the back of the front tires do not rub/hit against the KW springs? Plan to drop to about 1-2 finger gap. What's safe for clearance? 12mm spacers?

Would I need any for the rear? I am also running a 19mm Hotchkis rear sway bar.

Thanks.
Denny

Thanks. Looks like a 12mm spacer would work according to that thread.

Any particular brand you guys recommend? Or are they all about the same?

Just make sure the spacer is hub-centric and use proper length bolts.
