Default Wheel spacers

Does anyone have any experience with Hub-centric Titan wheel spacers. Just looking for feedback before I buy a set

Are you going to be a camber gang retard with them, is it just temporary until yiu can get new wheels with better offsets.....why are you wanting to run spacers?

I've used name brand spacers but the 3-4 sets I still have (plus many I've let go with wheels when I sell them) have come from the same vendor on EBay. No problems at all. I check them, re-torque them, non-issue.

Vendor name on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/str/premierautoacc

What I always say about spacers in the form of a disclaimer...

I don't like using spacers but with the volume of wheels I've run on my cars, spacers are a useful tool. For example, Z34 Sport or Nismo wheels are (or were) a good upgrade for a Z33.... forged wheels for cheap. Problem: front wheels are +40 offset. 20mm spacers work great for this, bringing effective offset down to +20. So, spacers are a handy item to have in the toolbox, despite not being an optimal solution (get correct offset wheels), they work.

I just got my first car a while ago and I plan on modifying. I really want to get some spacers to make my wheels flush with my fenders. Any downsides to getting spacers? Any dangers? I own a 03 Saab arc sedan.

I have 25 mm H&R spacers with my stock Track Rays wheels. They seem to work great and I have never had a problem.

Using spacers isn't a bad idea. Just avoid those cheap ones.

New to the forum with a new to me '04 350z Roadster. I went to put my '20 Z Sport 19" Rays wheels on and the fronts are just barely making contact with the upper arm. I have no knowledge of spacers but I'd like to get a quality pair of spacers with just enough clearance. I'm thinking I only need like 10mm spacers for the front to clear with the 245s. Anyone have any insight? Thank you.

20-25mm spacers needed. Z34 front wheels are high offset (47mm). Effective offset of 22-27mm for 9” wheels will work fine.
