    Wheel clearance

    Hey guys I bought some wheels that are 15x8.5 et 25 and was told I needed 10mm spacers to clear the front strut .I got them and had them test fitted and there was less than an inch of clearance I'd say half or so.
    Is this enough clearance ? Will I have problems if I were to hit a bump ? Should I go up to 12mm?

          Unless your wheel bearings are in terrible shape you should be good..

              We have some horrid roads. My struts are freshly powdercoated and theres no evidence of rubbing.
