thanks for the replies, only just read them cos my pc isnt updating for some reason. think i may just go 10mm on the rear and leave the front.Have heard stories about the rear tyres fouling the arch when lowered with 15mm spacers, has anyone experienced this?

I have Forge 16mm rears and 11mm front spacers (receipt added this 'important' extra 1mm) with Eibach springs, standard dampers, Vredstein sessanta tyres, no problems ever with rubbing the arches.

Did have a wheel bearing go at 45k miles car was 3yrs 1month old. Will never know if it was anything to do with the spacers. Personally I think not.

Ordered some 12mm spacers.

I seen these last week when looking for spaces. Getting myself a set in the very near future.

Just need to decided what width to go for.
