My heart, it hurts!

Damnit, I've never dealt with spacers so what would I need to make it poke out the same? 20mm maybe?

And if I didn't want to wait for them to be shipped where would I get them....I know I'm a n00b

Read through this:

I know waiting for shipping sucks, but going with a trusted vendor like Z1 Motorsports or ConceptZPerformance to get the right product the first time would be my best advice..

Here's Z1's own spacers:

Stopped by SSR/Tanabe so they could measure my brake clearance for their reference, my buddy snapped this cool shot of my car while I was there

I heard stories of mixing water in with the oil to help with performance. I might try that as well.
