I believe that most people prefer 15mm front and 20mm back on oem 19s for the coupe. It depends on the rims u have.

need to know the offsets to help with spacer size. Also lowering and camber comes into play. If you're just pushing the wheels out for a more flush look, subtract the spacer MM from the wheel offset MM

e.g. Your front wheel is 20 x 8.5 + 25 E.T. and a 15MM spacer and your new offset is +10. The further you move out the more chance you will rub during bumps or undulations in the road. You can further lower the front and add neg camber to tuck the fronts and eliminate some of the rubbing.

^I believe 25MM were being used on OEM coupe 19's when mounted on the sedan but double check and I know there are numerous theads/ posts. As for camber, you won't have an issue unless you lower the car.

Has anyone used the spacer with a coupe and the stock 19's? What thickness should be used with those if using Tein S-techs?
