Vossen Cv1 Wheel Spacers?

Hey guys I a set of vossen cv1's 20/9.5 front and 20/10.5 rear on my g37 coupe sitting on bc br coilovers and pretty slammed. Problem is, im tucking too much and need to pull my fenders soon and raise it up a little but then again I am seriously considering some spacers front and rear. The problem I have is I don't know exactly the size I need so if anyone has the same set up and can help me out...my tires are stretched and want to sit flush with fender...

I have 10.5 +25 CV5's all around... no need to pull the rear or roll the front fenders. Im low as well sitting 25 1/2 from ground to fender... tires are 255/30/20 all 4.. I'm going to switch to a 265/30/20 after I run these down... not sure what your trying to do but I'm just a lil poke but tuck...
I'm on Stance SS's too so again I dont see it???
the fronts might need a Spacer to make flush to match the rear...

Post pics... lets see what your talking about?

Looking to so this too. I have 32/42 with 245/285 tires. Looking into 12mm all around. What's the best spacer to go with? Akata seems to be recommended but I have heard some iffy things about them. Ichiba seems to vibrate.

Opinions?

Depends on your wheel offset and your tire size. What offset are the rims and what tires size?

My question is this... are you hitting the back bumper bracket?? If so shave it!!! Trim the liner too rubbing goes away! I dont rub nor hit at 25 1/2 inches from ground to fender... yet I'm as wide all around...

I bet your hitting that back bracket! You dont need a pull on the rear... I dont... check out my pics on the Vossen thred... last few pages... no roll no pull...

Last question... what size tires on the rear??? If your running a 275 yeah youll rub a lil but change out to a 265/30-255/30 and done bit still think your hitting the rear bracket...lol

Tire size is 255/35/20 in the rear stretched on 20x10.5 wheel. fronts are 235/35/20. And yeah im going to try to shave the rear bracket off and have already trimmed the fender liner a bit. Problem is, I hear it flapping when making turns...

As mentioned above, It is more than likely your fender liner or fender bracket that is rubbing. Eliminate those two and you are good. Liner just needs to be cut not completely removed.

Im rubbing the rear bracket and will be shaving tomorrow. Question....do I need to shave up to the bolt or completely shave all? If so will my bumper flap in the wind?

I have my bracket completely removed. It is held on very good, the wind will not blow it away. You can also first trim around the bolt and leave that on. If it still rubs then remove it completely.
