Just bought 305’s for the rear. Do I need to remove the 17mm spacers?

OEM springs? If so, you might never load the suspension sufficiently to experience full spring compression. You would, however, have severe tire rub under that condition. With a lowered suspension you would definitely need to drop back to a 10-12 spacer which can’t be done without installing longer studs.

Haven’t installed the 305’s yet. I have the OEM springs but plan to drop it slightly soon. Guess I’ll have to remove them. Thanks.

I have a pair of used 6 mm spacers listed on the Marketplace sub-forum that will push lowered 305’s out close to the limit without compromising thread contact.

So the extra width of the 305’s won’t give the wheels a flush fit with the fender? Make up for the 17 mm spacers? I’d still need spacers huh? If so, I’d take them off your hands.

6mm spacers plus 305 tires will provide the same appearance as an 11mm spacer with the OEM size tires. Not optimal, but the best that can be done with the 305s, given the available spacer options.

IronMike - I see that you have the 20 inch Storm Wheels for your 2015 Jag F Type R. I have these wheels too for my 2015 Jag F Type R and I would like to get some adapters. I run 295's in the rear (looks like you have 305's with 15mm adapters in the rear and 17mm in the front). Do you have the Motorsport Adaptec Design #3 adapters? Any rubbing? Did you have to shave or grind for the Storm Wheels to fit?
