    Hello, does any know if I add 15mm in front & 5mm spacers if that will look great. I all prepared for the spacers as for as the coilovers and all the good stuff. I am just wondering from other mini owners if they use different spacers.??

    You should be fine with that. What width & offset wheels are you using, and do you have a big brake kit?

    I have 205/45/R17, no big brake kit yet. I have arm links, camber plates, end link. I am just waiting to decide on what size off spacers to go with. Thanks for ur info
