That car is lowered. How low you go will dictate what spacers you need.
I run 15mm rear spacers and none on the front with my 21s and 12mm spacers with my 20s. Both sets rub at the front.
That is with 40mm springs all round.
Older cars sit a little more level in my opinion.

This is a close shot of 15mm rear spacers. 20mm rear might work but it'll be close.

I went 12 and 15. Mines running air and it occasionally rubs on the front when in dynamic suspension.

I ordered 15MM and 12MM, will be installing next week. OEM 21s Non-PP, hopefully should be OK and not rub.
Have KW HAS to be installed, but lowering maybe about 25MM Max, not too much at all.

I have 15mm front/20mm back with Cete lowering module as on air... the spacers work perfectly and I just had to adjust the ride height carefully to ensure absolutely zero rubbing. Fronts are nicely tucked with the geo I had done at Centre of Gravity and back sit flush.

Thanks - not sure of the actual drop from standard air height but on the Cete lowering module is 10mm lower than standard Dynamic (which is already quite low on factory air). I'm really pleased with it now.

Very nice
I’m on DRC and don’t think it’s really worth the cost to lower it. If I did it would only be 10mm as I have to see a gap between tyre and arch. Silly I know just a personal thing,hate it when the top of the tyre isn’t visible

Has anyone had 10mm front and 15mm rear combo just to keep the tyre inside the arch.
