Default SVR Maelstrom wheels on R - spacers?

Hi all - sorry for first post and it being a question ! but i've just joined the f type clan very recently, and i've secured a set of Maelstrom wheels

i couldn't find a definitive answer on search for what size spacers i should be running with the Maelstrom wheels on 305s at the rear on a 2015 R RWD
from my understanding the wheels sit tucked in a little further than stock (i'm currently running 15mm spacers on Tornado wheels) - i've been offered 20mm spacers with the wheels?


thanks

If you know the offset on the rear Maelstroms, I can tell you the max. safe adapter.

If that's the case, OP could safely deploy 25mm adapters. The 20mm adapters will work well.

thank you )

What would the difference be compared to how I have it now ? I’m running stock 20 tornados 10.5 on the rear with 15mm spacers

I wouldn’t want it any further in than it is at its currently sitting well

You’d need 25 mm adapters to put them in the same place.

thanks

would that mean 5 mm on the front if I’m currently running 15mm?
