Default wheel spacers

hey guys i have an 01 ap1 with ap2 v1s and i was looking into getting a wheel spacer. i like flush s2000s and i want them to be pretty flush with the outside of the fender. i was just wondering what kind of wheel spacer i would need to get them to do so? im looking at front and rear. also would this break anything? does it make anything weaker? does handling decrease? thanks guys.

20 in the front and 25 in the rear. with the fronts there should be no fender work, but with the rears, it depends on the tire size. 245 slight neg camber and slight roll. but 255 you need about -3 camber and a roll.

Do you need to relocate the bumper tab? I'm running -2.8 camber and a ~2" drop (skunk2's) and wanna extend my wheels out. If rolling is all I need then I'm super game

with a 20mm and using 245/40/17 tire a 200 mm spacer should do the trick. a 25 mm spacer with 245/40/17 tire, you would need too run more neg camber of about -3. reason how i know is because i have a 25mm spacer.

for a p1 wheels: it is a 16 in wheel. and again depends on the tire you want to run. but since its a 7.5 inch rim with an offset of 65. but running a 245 tire as well, i would still go with 20mm. unless you really ant that wide stance and more neg camber then 25mm is your thing.

I'm running a 225 in the front and a 255 in the rear. Would 20mm all the around be alright then?

do u plan on running neg camber? i would do 15 in the front and 20 in the rear with a good neg camber.

my current setup is 255 stock ap2 v3, with a 25 mm spacer and -2.4 camber and i rub. im planning to get rolled. i have nothing in the front.
