Default 35th Anniversary with new Ichiba 25mm spacers installed

Here are a few pics of the 25mm spacers installed on all 4 corners. I think I might need to install my splash guards I have sitting in the garage.

Here's a dumb, probably over-asked question. Do you notice any difference in handling? Since you're one of the few that I've seen on here with stock wheels and spacers.

I have only had them on for a few hours so it's hard to say. I drove home from work today where I just had them installed.. no shake or vibrations> I pushed thru a few corners and it felt great. It may sound odd but it actually feels wider. You can feel the width being 2 inches wider with the spacers. less shakey from side to side..... thats what I feel anyway. Still getting used to the look as there is quite a change.

I know what you mean. That's how I feel after a good plate of pasta!
Thanks for the info. I may go ahead and take the plunge.

looks pretty good I'm thinking about putting spacers on also. Did you find any problems putting the lugs back on like did they have enough thread to catch and bolt on properly being that the spacers are so wide. Thanks

Does your Z feels like it accelerates a bit slower? I was about to install those same spacers on my car ... but after feeling their weight ... I decided not to ...
