Hi, I want to buy 15mm spacers for my rear wheels and I have few questions. Will there be any problem if I install spacers on aftermarket wheels? Some guy said that you shouldn't do it on another thread but he didn't mention WHY. Also can I just attach spacer on hub (after cleaning it ofc) or should I use some lubricant ? And the last one - my front wheels have 35 ET offset and in near future I might want to add spacers on the front wheels too so will 15mm spacers fit on front or will it rub? I have stock suspension

Need the width of the front rim itself too, et35 on a 9 is very different from 10et35.
For rears, won't have any problem as long as the aftermarket wheels are hubcentric, and the 15mm spacer has its own hub as well.

Most "good" spacer kits come with anti-seize grease to apply between your cleaned hub and spacer. If they don't include it, you can just apply copper paste.

15's on the front will be fine on stock suspension, but you'll be poking like crazy. I'd go for a 10mm on the front.
