was looking to get some 25mm bolt on hubcentric wheel spacers from ebay, looked at a couple of different brands, dont really want to be cheap but i have not read too many bad things about them, what bad i did read about them was from retarded people installing them.... so thoughts?

In my experiance with spacers.... If you get the spacers that DONT already include the wheel bolts than you should be okay with just extended studs on the hub... the spacers WITH wheel studs built in i wouldn't trust! Spacers are mainly all the same just make sure you dont go too thick, cause the hubs/bearing take a beating! especially if you're slammed! ![]() The OP def doesn't have to worry about that.... x3 on culps post, Dude with your coilovers I wouldn't go more than 15 mm spacers honestly. With those 15mm you'd be at +27mm and with 20mm spacers you'd definitely need to get your fenders rolled. I'm pretty sure of it, but I would wait for confirmation from another member, before you decide on 15mm vs 20mm. I'm getting my spacers installed next weekend so I'll post up the pics. I have 16x7 rims with +42mm offset as well. You can even come over and check it out or we can meet somewhere before you decide to make your buy. Don't buy those hellaflush spacers, those are the type of spacers you definitely do not want to buy. You need a pair like mine. ![]() -------------------- Group buy to replicate Narrow E series transaxle parts
