25mm Spacers And Oe Turbo Wheels
« on: 08:34:00 PM / 13-Sep-08 »
Nothing too extreme, but I decided to add some 25mm spacers to the rears as I've never liked the "sunken" tire look....can't believe I didn't do it earlier as it looks 100% better, and the top of the tires are almost flush with the fenders....probably a 30mm spacer would of been perfect, but oh well.  What do you think??

Before spacers......



Spacers with hub centric rings....



Spacer bolted up........



and after..........







Rear "stagered" stance is much, much greater now.....





Now, just need to lower some more, and eventually some different wheels/ tires

Nice man, your car is looking fantastic as always.  A bit more spacer front and rear and it would be perfect, but indeed looks much better than stock.  If you end up upgrading the wheel/tire package, that will turn out real good  

Info dump on those spacers and hubcentric rings, thats quality looking stuff!

You should keep the oem wheels and just get them widened.
