10mm spacers - do they fit?

Quick question for anyone running standard suspension and OEM CSL wheels.

Will the fitment of 10mm spacers at the front cause rubbing?

My car has around -2d camber on the front

No - not at all. I have used 10mm at the Ring & Spa with no issues on OEM suspension with -2deg camber set on top mounts.

Shimmy uses 12mm all round without problems (with Intrax 1k2) and i think Mark uses 15mm at the front on his car.

I might try the 15mm on the fronts...

I've 10mm's all round on KW suspension, no issues with rubbing even on full lock.

Thanks guys - good to know! Will be putting on a set then

I spoke to Thorney on this as they recommend 10mm at front for improved handling on standard set up......I'm going this route to.

front turn in supposed to be improved with spacers but i put mine all round and they seem to have welded themselves to the rims

I got told that too, but I went 10s all round to keep that bad-boy-staggered look.
