I just got the spacers in the mail today. I doubt they help with handling at all but it was a much needed aesthetic upgrade. I'll probably never even know what difference they make since I haven't even driven my car yet. Check out the pics.





Nice, ehh?

The pic on the left has the spacers. I'll take some better pics when I can drive the car. It should sit lower but since it was just lowered off the jack it's like an inch higher. It is such a big difference in person though.

It's only cosmetic. The rims worked fine before, I think. (Haven't driven my car yet)

yeah i have spacers on my back for the size of my rims and tires, 265/40/18

but im thinking about getting them in the front cuz i only have 215 up front or they will rub



so what im thinking to be able to put bigger tires is raising my car about 1/2 an inch and then putting spacers and then either 225 or 235
