i just ordered a set of H&R 15mm Wheel Spacers do you have any pics of your ride with the spacers ? and do you have a drop at all? your car looks great but the pic in your album seems like you have no drop and your not using spacers; its hard to tell. can you post something up?

nope i have a set of spacers 25mm i want for the front but waiting & saving to get the rear 20mm.

as for a drop nope & i dont think i can drop it cause of my entrance to my garage is deep & i have annoying lady who trys to fit in a spot & the ass of the cars blocks anyone who trys to go side ways so they wont bottom out.

pretty sure those 0ffsets are 60mm so 15mm would bring it to stock. 25 would bring it to 35mm. 30mm is pretty much flush.

i want flush. if you do too, then YAH! i'd go with maybe 30mm in the front and 25mm in the back? or 25mm all around, but thats me. then again i wouldn't buy a rim with such a high offset. 15mm would make then 45mm and thats stock..no where near flush. you lowered?

yeah i'm dropped 1.6" in the Front and 1.3" in the rear. i want it completley flush, not sticking out of the fender. so im guessing 20mm would do the trick
