Default Spacer recomendation? 15mm vs 10mm?

Looking to poke my wheels out a bit for a more aggressive stance. I am running 17" Stock Avus's, on Vogtland Springs/Koni Shocks. Pirelli PZero Nero 225/45/17's.

What's spacing is advisable for this given setup? 10mm Front, 15mm Rear....or 15mm all around?

Please give your thoughts. Thanks.

Default 15mm. the 10mm will just make it flush.

but the 15 wont be that much more aggressive... but most likely enough to achieve the look youre going for...

Default depending on your tire and your stance...

i mean if youre poking... then i guess youre stretching as well? if not then almost definately i would say youre rubbing.

So 10mm is noticable? Whats the consensus around here? I'm dropped about 1.25" or so...

Default We've done 15s all around with that setup

Looked great and seems to work fine with a 225 tire.
