So I have a set of HR springs that I have yet to install and I think I'll finally have it done when I get my ECUs pulled for a tune. Thought about going with spacers as well and just get all of it done at once.

My question is what do you recommend for the size of spacers if it'll be a 1" drop in the front and 0.6" in the rear. Stock 343 wheels too. Would 12mm front and 15mm work without rub or would I be better off with 12mm all around?

I had 12mm front and 10mm rear on mine with Dinan springs and it looked perfect imo, no rubbing at all. I have a gently used set of Macht Schnell spacers for sale http://f10.m5post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1204485

Might as well get 12mm on the back as well, there is plenty of room even with a 1" drop I don't get any rubbing so .6" will be fine.

15mm will cause rub issues , go 12mm.
I'm running 12mm front and 10mm rear and have no problems.

I have 12mm on all 4 corners and KW HAS springs. Perfect stance, no issues. Looks like it should rub but doesn't.
