    Default Rear wheel spacers

    Anyone using? Any input as to which make to get, sizes, safety, driveability, etc?

    Have 10mm spacers for the front wheels b/c the 225 tires with 7-series wheels were rubbing the springs. The tires stick out more, looks much nicer. As for the rears, they sit inside too much and it just doesnt look right.

    dude spacers are real causes for disaster, your wheels arent sitting against the hub. Its okay of your pushing the car around the garage but not for drivine, not even in a straight line.

    the ones made from CNC machined aluminum alloy seem to be of ok quality, but you need larger wheel lugs to go through the hub, or you are in for some bad **** when the wheel snaps off
