403M with H&R Sport springs - Can you recommend spacers?

Hi guys I'm currently running H&R Sport springs on my car with 403m wheels and M brakes. Looking to add spacers. Would you do 10mm front 15mm rear or 12mm front 15mm rear or even more agressive as long as there is no rubbing.

Anyone have a pic of either setup?

Cheers

Bust out a ruler with Millimeters on it and measure the distance from the tire to the inside fender. That will give you a better idea of what size spacer. Every application will be a little bit different so it is always recommended to measure twice buy once

...cannot give you feedback if you can feel a change as we only changed to summer tyres yesterday evening and install the spacer first time. Today my wife drove with it, as I used my toy.

Rims are the standard 403M set up with known dimensions and Bridgestone RFT.

Guess I'm just used to see this in black only. -And this square under your plates kind off got me off the track. Is that for avoiding too much cooling during winter time?

...which winter do you mean

No, that is the radar part of the stop and go cruise control. Doesn't look nice, but in general a nice feature.

Yep, we only had 10 comlete days below zero.. Not much.

Stop & Go.. Nice. Unfortunately cars in Denmark are extremely expensive.
Paid 170900 €. Actually 1/3 of it was Extras like Xenon, Navi, bluetooth, 20" & 18" etc.

Please let me know when you have experience good or bad with the spacers.
