15mm or 25mm wheel spacers for DC5 ITR rims on an RSX Type S??
I have a set of DC5 ITR rims that I'd like to put on my stock 06 RSX Type S, however, I've seen both 15mm and 25mm spacers recommended for this application with most leaning toward the 25mm spacers as they look better. My question is if I went with the 25mm spacers will it rub at all or would I have to roll the fenders? I haven't found any clear answers, but I'd like to avoid rolling the fenders at all costs so would rather go with the 15mm if there's any chance of things rubbing with the 25mm spacers. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to all!

I don't have ITR rims on mine, but I do have spacers. I have one off right now getting new studs pressed in. I'll measure it for you and get a picture on how my rims look. Hope it helps.
*edit*
My spacers are 1" exactly. So 25.4mm.

Thanks! As your rims appear to be out pretty wide, can you tell me what the width of your rims are and what offset they are? I'd like to avoid how far out your rims are for fear of rubbing under heavy cornering loads. I'm trying to avoid that at all costs.
Again, thanks very much for your info! Much appreciated!

Front:
SET OF 4 STR606 (B) 18x8 5x114.3/120 +30 73.1 GOLD MACHINE LIP
Rear:
SET OF 4 STR606 (B) 18X9 5x114.3/120 +35 73.1 GOLD MACHINE LIP
Because the rear is 1" thicker is why I have spacers in the front to make them line up when looking at them on the road. I bought the car like this and it was completely slammed with the tires rubbing the fenders. I raised the coilovers and have had no problems with rubbing. If you need more pictures or anything let me know. I can also take a picture of it without the spacer if you need.

2 studs on 1 side of the spacer were broken and 1 on the other side were rusted. I bought 10 new studs and found out the previous owner used a file to widen the spacers to fit the new studs. I'm just going to take them off. If you want the spacers and or studs just PM me.
