10mm or 15mm wheel spacers for front wheels?

sitting on stock steelies with 175/65/15 tires
lowered on s-techs
-2.75* camber

will 15mm be too much and cause rubbing, or should i play it safe and get 10mm spacers instead?

anyone have any pics with 15mm spacers up front?

thanks in advance everyone!

Never done front... in my opinion I will never do it, because the front wheels get all the beating (steering & throttle / braking). but thats my feeling.

Also... whatever you do, don't take system 4 spacers, because everything lower than 20mm will push your wheels outside (the bolts are sticking out of the spacer).

I run 5mm up front, I am kind of in the same boat as G-Ammo, I just feel uncomfortable having to put new studs in and ride around on those up front

Well... 5 mm spacers (the ones I've seen) are not hub centric, the 10 mils are, so the spacer should take most of the beating, not the studs...

But, I would agree, if you're going to be driving very aggressively, and have the budget for it, you'd be better off buying new wheels with the offset you are looking for.

For now I'm happy with the 10's! And the difference in handling is noticeable, not just good looking :)

Picture attached. That's 15 in the back, 10 in the front, all else stock (for now).
