Default Pictures with wheel spacers

Looking for pics with stock wheels and 15/20mm spacers. Preferably 35th anniv. model or wheels. Want to be sure the rears are not too wide.

question is why? stock wheels do not need spacers. those are for when you are running some odd offset and need them to make the wheels fit.

15/20mm is not "too wide" for those wheels. Most people run 20 front, 25 rear and it looks very good.

I run 25 front and rear and I think it looks great. Dropping on gf210s pretty soon, don't expect to have rubbing issues but whatever, will see when it happens.

I was thinking about doing spacers + stock rims as well, but wasn't sure if the look would be right with the thinner width wheels pushed out to the corners.

Yeah, just go to Media Share and do a Search Titles Only search for "Stock Spacers" and you get about 3 pages of results.

Wheel photos are in the wheel forum. We put it there so that new members will have a hard time finding it. So far I think we are doing a stellar job.

I'll have pics tomorrow of +20 (after 15mm spacer) in fronts and +15 (after 20mm spacer) in rears. Lowered on S-Techs. However the S-Techs...I only got finished installing 4 hours or so ago so they won't be settled yet.

no rubbing..i don't have this setup anymore since i got aftermarket wheels..but with stock wheels..spacers and a drop does do the car major justice.

I am running Kics 20mm fronts and 25mm rears with my stock 18s (8" wide front, 8.5" wide rear), stock suspension...looks much better than stock. I could easily go 30mm in the rear if I wanted to, but the 20mm in the front is pretty much dead on.

I'm on vacation right now, and while I'm gone I'm having my friend install Eibach Sportlines, Tokicos, and SPC front/rear arms. I am not expecting to rub, but we'll see. I'll post pictures when I pick the car up.
