Wheel Spacers

Is there any science behind the effects of adding spacers?
10mm or 15mm? Or is it how the wheel then sits in the arch? Or outside of too much I guess...

And finally is there any negative effect adding spacers to the rear and not the front as well?


Thanks

I have used h&r spacer for a couple of years now, on both my 8p s3 and now my b5 s4, and have had no problems with them, i run a larger spacer on the rear to the front, i would recommend asking someone who fits wheels often for the sizing to use, as this will obviously vary dependent on offset of wheels, tyre and wheel sizing etc.

I am sure there are people on here that could help, but if your thread is not replied to quickly enough, i would suggest giving Darren at G-werks (google search) a call, they are predominantly vw specialists but darrens knowledge on 'stance' is highly regarded in the vag scene.

I'd be interested in those spaces if you still have them. I assume it's a pair of them? How much?
