48mm is clamp size for the 1.0 so presuming its similar size. It should have the size engraved unto side of the clamp if you have a look

Just wondering what size spacers do I need to get the wheels sitting just under the arches when I get coilovers, I was thinking 10mm but don't think it's enough?

spacers make the wheels wider, so having so spacers would technically make your wheels sit under the arches if its low enough, it all depends on your wheel fitment and et etc

The wheels I'm getting are the cav slabs mate, fitment on them is 6Jx15 and et49

I want it to poke a little but rather than tucking them.

Read it wrong didn't you ;)

It's more poke I want so I'm unsure of what size spacers to get, if I had to tuck it I wouldn't mind doing so not sure how low if go though as there's speed bumps where my girlfriend lives and there huge :(
