Spacers

I am using 15mm spacers all around but have rubbing issues in the rear (only with a passenger rubs when I hit bumps). My question is I am lowering the vehicle with H&R springs soon 1'' front .6 rear, I am also running Yokohama AD08 265/35/19 stock tire size and stock rims in the rear. The AD08 tires have a square shape compared to the stock PS2. Will I be ok using 12mm spacers after my drop or should I go with 10mm spacer to avoid rubbing after the drop?

Look at this thread (http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=506896 post #29) to see where you are likely rubbing. By looking at your own car in the area, you should be able to judge whether 3mm inboard will solve it. Your alternative is to trim the interference point.
