Default Got my Project Kics Wheel Spacers!!! PICS included!!!

I got a knock on the door today from the UPS guy. I finally got my spacers and hubcentric rings. They are 15mm for the front and 20mm for the rear. Here are some pics of the spacers and rings themselves. Project Kics have the studs built into them so they are easy to install and unistall as needed.

I got the spacers from Dana @ AutoRND (http://www.autornd.com/catalog/) Great guy to work with.









They really improved the look of the car, and it will look much better when I install my 19" G35 Rays. They are waiting for me to pick them up in Phoenix


here are some pics of the car...

no harder than an aftermarket wheel with a low offset (23 or so) They are used on the track, even by drifters (corporate sponsored cars also) with no problems.

HUGE difference! That's what the stock offsets should've been!

I think they were about 270 or so with the hubcentric rings.

I did some searching on this forum. There are quite a few people that have used them

I got them from a member on arizonarsx.com I used to live down there and owned a turbo rsx so i still check the boards.. one of the other members happened to buy a G and got aftermarket wheels... so i jumped on his Rays

They were extra but total cost was just barely above what H&R cost... and the studs are built in so you can take the whole thing off whenever you need (its as easy as taking off the wheel). With most other spacers you have to change out the wheel studs for longer ones... so if you wanted to take them off, you would need to remove the studs again too.
