I had to roll fenders and relocate tabs with 15/20mm spacers, so I would say its a must with 25mm. Maybe someone else can tell you if you need to adjust your camber as well.
Thanks for clarifying.. I feel that 25mm stick too far out for my tastes. I wish 15mm spacers worked, would've looked perfect =/

Does Option Selects make 15mm rear spacers? The lowest I could find was 20mm

The hub specific piece is just an insert. I don't see why they wouldn't. You can just slip the 64.1mm bore insert into their 15mm spacers.

Maybe a silly question but does anybody have a good way of preventing the front wheels from rotating so I can tighten the front spacers to the hubs a bit better. I'm just holding the disc brake to prevent it from spinning and tightening the bolts with the other hand. The rears are tightened well as wheel doesn't move with the e brake on.

Kind of a silly question, yes lol.
Have someone in the car holding the brakes while you tighten.

Does anybody know? I'm eager to order my spacers just checked Option Selects item list again & the lowest spacer I could find was still 20mm rears, no 15mm's. And I couldn't find any spacers for the fronts at all as well, just the rears
