GT - had snow where i live last night too!!! All gone now but car was covered early this am!! Anyway, im waiting on a call back from Roy at CA about both the Rogue Limiter Kit and also the Eibach spacers he sells. Im looking at the 20mm spacers that bolt to th hub and therefore means you can use your own wheel bolts as they bolt to the spacer itself. They are about £90 per pair. I just need to know if there is any clearance issue with a stock suspension set up as i dont intend to add coilovers for at least a few months anyway. They are all on the CA website - check them out and let me know what you think?? How many days left til D day!!????

the max for spacer at the back is 12 mm (front 16mm). more and it's possible but you will have contact between the tyre and the body...that was the case if i remember well with david at dijon's track when he was driving hard in corner! (he has got 16 mm spacer with original csl wheels...). I prefer his new configuration(very beautiful and look racing) with his black CH wheels, before it was looking too much, "more is enemy of well"

16mm is ok with cups and PS2 and other tires, I have yokohama Advan with rims protection sont they are slithy larger and it's touchy in sharp and ruff corners, on cups and standard tires, fits perfect, no problems

12mm is probably the best

spaces are in aluminium, son it wont rust of look bad and it's easy to clean.

Ok - ive just ordered 12mm spacers all round. Thought i would err on the side of caution in terms of size and also i intend to have coilovers fitted in the new year and these spacers will be used then.
Only thing im struggling trying to find now is a LOCKING WHEEL NUT in 12mm - any ideas who might have a set of 4???
