Here’s a pic of DTUK’s (sorry mcmaddy) old Golf R which I used for reference when I had my Golf R back in 2015 as I initially fitted spacers to it before changing to wheels with a more aggressive offset later on.

These are 15mm front and 20mm rear.
I actually fitted 12mm front and 17mm rear in the end (and still have them in my garage somewhere!)

I had 15mm all round with my Cadiz & they looked  👌

I have Eibach Pro spacers, not the cheapest by far but then again they are precision made & corrosion resistant unlike some cheap ones which are just natural alloy finish.

I'm no longer using them as I have Revo RFO wheels on now, so if your interested I'm happy to do a deal on them inc the longer bolts 👍  £125 shipped in uk

The are pictures the day I had them fitted & Eibach 15mm Pro-Kit Lowering Spring Kit fitted & the springs hadn't settled down yet

Bear in mind that some insurance companies aren’t keen on wheel spacers so before you buying any, it might be worth checking your insurer is OK with you fitting them.
