Default Awd R VAP springs and 17mm spacers

Has anyone with an awd R and VAP springs tried 17mm spacers? Bought wheels with an offset of +38/21 so the 17 mm is built in.

Trying to decide between VAP and KW springs, and would probably prefer progressive if they worked. But, kw springs are adjustable so it should definitely work

From another thread not too long ago, new owner’s F-Type came with 17mm spacers and he ended up having to go with 15mm spacers in order to no longer have rubbing issues.

He had H&R springs, which drop lower than VAP
