I have 225/40/zr18 front and rear. gonna have a 1.5 inch drop in the front and 1.2 inch in the back wondering what spacer pads I could use in the back to make it a bit wider looking to match the drop. Suggestions would be be great.

Hey thanks didn't see this till just now .. 40 mm is I believe a little too wide .. I would like to test it out before I purchase them so I'm not gonna take the chance and buy very wide. Maybe 20 mm

get a set of Digital Calipers, place them on the edge of the rim and measure out towards the fender well . Mine measured 15 mm til it hits, so I went with 12mm in the rear
