what size spacer to use

I have a set of 22 inch ACS Type II;s that are all 10.5 width. Coming from a staggered 20 inch 87s the rear wheels now don't come out far enough to the wheel arches

what is the appropriate length spacer for a better look ?

Had these on my truck they should have come with 20mm spacer all acs come with spacers if you did not get them then somebody ripped you off on a side note the ride is ok but watch those pot holes one good one and they will crack very easily they are a very light wheel cast alloy not very strong

already put major damage on one last year, luckly picked up a spare, however no spacers - not advertised either - my own losss I guess


So 20mm on front and back, does that counter effect the appearance of being staggered
I thought only a spacer in the rear was requried inorder to spread the wheels out and give that same appearance as staggered 87s

understood!! Now I am the wiser

So 20mm on the rear looked good? or your suggesting more on the rear ? I have rear flares, would love to get front flares but that is some expensive plastic.
