What spacers should I get if I'm adding BBS CHs with 19x9.5 in the rear? I believe the offset is et40 and I'll be running these tires: 265/30/19, Toyo Proxes 4. Currently, I'm on H&R Sport springs.

10MM, 12MM, or 15MM?

I would like things flush without ANY risk of rubbing. Thanks!

12mm ftw, for no rub.
15mm for best look, slight chance of barely any rub.

i have the exact same tires and same spec.

Yeah, that's what I'm leaning towards, unless someone strongly disagrees.

15mm should be fine man. if u are on e90 especially.

i have a 19x10 wheel ET30 with the TOYO proxes4 265/30/19. no rubbing.

so 40 - 15 = ET35, on a 19x9.5. should be all fine.

BTW, how are you liking the ride quality? Faster, quieter, more grip, etc... with regards to the entire package, since that's what I'll be getting here in a few days.

What kind of drop do you have?

I would go with the 12mm.With a 15mm it will be a et25.your asking for it to rub.I think an et 28 will look perfect. my .02 anyway. Get RE spacers,I think they are the best.

[uhaulball]

if u were here long enough u would've heard about the issues with 10 and 12mm spacers cracking. RE brand and H&R Brand; do a search.

15mm spacer provides extra thickness in the spacer itself, so it is stronger. id rather run the small chance of rubbing than a cracked spacer which can lead to a lot more serious things. rolling fenders is not the end of the world. cracked spacer may... and i highly doubt any rubbing will occur with 19x9.5 et25.

Oh man, I wasn't aware of the cracked spacers issue. I'll do a search, but that concerns me a whole lot. Now I'm thinking maybe I should just do without and not take any risks.

EDIT: okay, just finished reading all those threads regarding cracked spacers. It looks like if I go with the 15mm, like you recommend, I won't have any worries about cracking. I never track my car, and don't plan on it either, so I'll definitely be fine.
