well it was a nice day out today so i installed my wheel spacers. they are 1/4 inch and to my surprise they look really good i didnt think i would notice the differnce. but they flush the wheels out better then before.  
opinions and comments welcome…

Looks almsot perfect to me…just enough so you don’t rub.(well for people like me who aren’t going the coilover route.)

Where’d you get them from and what offset are you running?

1/4 inch is like 6mm which is about as large as you are going to want to go without longer studs, it may infact be pushing it.

are the rear studs longer than the front one?

i think i read that somewhere but i cant remmeber where

ya i think they are a bit longer… i just got back from westside performance shop. and talk to there guys. they said i should be ok. as long as you have at least 4 full turns or more then you will be ok i have liek 6-8 at least before they are snug so i think i will be ok… i am worried if i get to long of studs i will need new lugs and wheel locks…
