hi every1. Happy new year to you all. This csl has an awesome stance, i want to have the same look on mine, can anyone guess what size of spacers does this csl have? . judging from the pic it does have maybe 2 degree camber?

At an educated guess I'd say 12 mm all round ??? :)

I'm only guessing but 15 mm at the rear would probably be too much.

I guess the one in the pic is 12mm rear and either 15mm fornt or 12mm with very little camber

Im telling ya, mud flaps are the future lads !

Never had any problems or rubbing of any kind with 15mm on standard suspension and even if lowered slightly I don't think it would matter as there is still clearance for the wheel to tuck up into the arch.

im running standard height and 12mm spacers, may have some cups that are 35 series so may get a bit close on the back but we will see.

15mm on front A OK
15mm rears
currently running nitron sport plus coilovers
off side rear tyre rubs inner arch during spirited driving, this doesn't necessarily mean 15mm is to wide but 12mm on the rears i found to be 100%.

I've 15mm all round and as an experiment stuck 3 fat coonts in the back and went off for a spin with no rubbing at all :thumbs:
