I have Ohlins R&T from 3DM Motorsport with swift springs and millway street camber plates. So I can work camber to help but I've heard the Ohlins have less inner clearance so do I go with 19x9.5 ET28 and run small spacers or do I buy the 19x9.5 ET22 without spacers?
Any idea if the swift springs improve inner clearance or reduce the front stack height on the coilovers? Spring dimensions and lower perch height on the front struts are generally the main issue we see with the Ohlins from an inner clearance standpoint so if the swift setup is significantly slimmer/shorter than other Ohlins springs you may be able to run ET28 without spacers.

If its the same or similar to standard Ohlins, then the lower offset and additional negative camber would likely be the way to go.
