Default 2016 F-Type R AWD - Spacer help...

Hey everyone! I have done some research but haven't found anyone with an AWD R using spacers on their car. I want to put spacers on, but I don't know how the AWD setup differs from the RWD, if at all. Can anyone point me in the right direction/which spacers to buy(15mm) for the car?

Thanks!

The track dimensions and wheel options are the same for both the RWD and AWD cars. Unlikely that there are any unique considerations required when selecting spacers.

there should be anything different from AWD to RWD.

with 15mm spacers there is the possibility of needing to shave the lugs down in order to fit the wheels.

I have a set of 17mm spacers coming for my rwd R. This should hopefully eliminate that need while still fitting.
