Default Anyone run AP1 rear size on all 4 corners?

I'm looking to go to a few events a year with friends for fun. Was thinking of getting a set of AP1 rims and put some Hankook RS3 tires on them for track events. Would the rear rims work for the front without having any fitment issues on stock height?

They work but you have to bore out the center because the hub size is alittle bigger on the front

I run 5mm spacers with my AP2 rears up front, but felt the need to put in longer studs.

I just picked up another complete set of AP1 rims. Think I may just put some hankook ventus RS3 so I have a set of decent tires for the few track events that I will be doing a year with friends.

If you read what the guys above said you still have to bore out the rears/use spacers or run 4 AP1 fronts in the smaller tire sizes.

^ You need at least a 5mm spacer to fit ap1 rears on the front (if you don't bore them out)

I also agree with Dave the lugs don't get enough full turns with the 5 mm spacers, extended are recommended if you go this rout.

I use ap1 rears X4 on my car for autoX and I have them bored to clear the front. This allows for me to use the stock lugs safely
