25mm should work just fine... if you go 30 you need to rool your fenders, if you car is slammed!

It should look ok if you slam your car ....other wise it might stick out to much!

Good luck

you should be fine with 30mm's all around. since you're slammed, you will likely need a fender roll on the rear. but it'll be worth it. imo, if you're going to get spacers, might as well go all out and be aggressive. what's the point otherwise?

i had the guy at hp motoring measure it when he was putting in my new tires and he said if i wanted to look crazy sick i could go 30 mm all the way around. im guessing it would be close considering the stockers come with +30 F and +33 R.

so that would bring you to +0 F 8.0; +3 R 8.5

I think you should not have much of an issue.

I'm currently running +3 F 9.5 and +4 R 10.5 on mine, and it fits (with some adjustment)

what size tires are you running, stock sizes?

30 is the way to go. Everyone seems to go with 25 though, since it's a bit more conservative.
