Do NOT use spacers. Do a search.
Also, there are a couple of guys on here with those same wheels. Eclipsetenzor, sieuclipse, and flyinesi(used to) have them. PM those guys.

Agreed. Only a complete MORON would use spacers on our cars... (lets see if he chimes in here)

I'm using a 25MM spacer from H&R. It's hubcentric, though, so it won't demolish lugs, and I don't lose the safety of having the wheel sit tight on the hub.
Unless you want to spend $250, don't get spacers. They won't be hubcentric (or safe!).

Mike, I asked you in another post if you ended up using spacer, And you said yeah, But only on the rear. Are we talking about the fronts only?? ^^^^

completely uneducated response as usual.
like ducky, i also run hubcentric spacers. a lot of benefits outside of just spacing out a fat wheel.

Excuse me assclown... Don't get me started on you. I know all about hubcentric and how our hubs work and what to use and what not to use. Just ask Eclipsehingetuner there about when I schooled him about not using your standard wheel spacers and to purchase some hubcentric wheel spacers if he even considered running them at all. I probably have more comments in this section regarding hub centric spacers than you do total... Fuck off you little socal twat.

Yup. But you have to admit its true. I'm sure you remember how much shit I gave you when you had thoughts of running regular spacers on your widebody. Josh likes to open his kid mouth when he has no idea whats going on around here. lol. I hadn't seen him post in so long I figured he got banned for the third and final time!

I cant agree with anyone really Chris, cause I know jackshit about suspension. I understand the whole concept about hubcentric, but if the adapters were hubcentric, I guess the worst that would happen would be a stud or two breaking, but hell I dont know. All I know is I went with my gut feeling and trusted all you knowledged 2gnt'rs :)
