I just put 15mm spacers on the back and 10mm in the front on stock 161's with no issues to report, but it sure looks allot better

Maybe the xi has a wider rear track to begin with?

are you on the 162 rear 8.5J with 255/35/18 plus 15mm spacer ? does it cos any rubbing on the rear ? if you don't mind when you got any photos of you setup and the rear wheel pic, please post them ?

Hi guys, are spacers easy to fit? Do you fit them yourselves?

booforty · 02-01-2007, 02:35 PM

Sorry, another question!

When you say 15mm spacers do you mean 15mm each side so total track widening of 30mm?

Thanks!

just the thread i was looking for....

i plan on running 19x9.5 offset 45mm this summer, and i wanted to add RE 12mm spacers on the back. so this thread helped me out a little

yes, one would install a pair of spacer, one on each side of the rear wheel.
