Hi all,

I'm about to order some adapters for my new wheels, the rears i don't have much play due to them already poking with the smallest of adapters. But i need to decided on the thickness of the front adapters to depict where the wheels sit.

I want your thoughts on what thickness to get for the front, which will then adjust the look.

15mm will have the wheels sitting about 8mm in the arches
20mm they will push them to about 3mm inside the arches
25mm and they will be about 2mm outside give or take a bit.

I'm thinking the 20mm to give me heaps of clearance to the coilovers but 25mm might match the rears more...

the car is a black VW Bora
wheels are BBS RS 17x7 and 17x9, so ill be having a 45 profile tyre and with a little stretch on the rears (215/45/17 im thinking), and the fronts will try to get vertical walls on the tyres.
The car is on coilovers so i can go whatever height i like.

The wheels:
