Pics of H&R Spacers installed...

I finally got them on. 15mm in the front and 20mm in the rear. Looks real nice. Don't know if you can really get the feel of it from these pics though. Anyways, they're on my car domain site Page 3.

Looks nice on your stock rims.

But seriously, it looks good, much more aggressive.

I believe Evos are 40mm offset.

I am also planning on putting these on. I already have them in size of 20mm for the front and 25mm for the rear. My wheels are 47mm offset with 7.5" in width.

I'll also post some pics when I get these on. Hopefully next weekend.

JoeJoe, was it difficult to install your spacers? How difficult is it to remove the studs and calipers? Need a breakerbar?

BTW, looks

Thanks!

The pics look really good. Its hard to tell just how much of a difference they make. I'm running 5mm front and 15mm rear and its like night and day without them.

Nice car and nice pics, BTW. How does the wider stance affect handling? Just a guess, but I would think it would improve it...how much I don't know.

HKMax - I didn't do the install. I had my shop mess with my brakes and install rear rotors, so they just stuck these on while they were at it. They said that it's a perfect fit and it was no problem.

Ghase - Yeah, I know, $300 is alot to pay for these. But I really needed them. I had a big brake kit put on and had to get 15mm on the front. It would've looked silly without the rears even. I think the 15/20 combo makes them look nice and flush.

1TyteMAX03 - As far as the stillen kit goes. I know the sides and rear will fit the 03, but not sure about the lip. There may be a different one for the 03. Not sure though, someone else may want to chime in.

Tony - I don't think there's a big difference in handling. Course I already have it lowered and a RSB, so don't think the spacers will actually make a huge difference for me.

Anyways, thanks everyone for your compliments. I'll try to get some pics from farther away.

Yeah, both sets came with longer studs. The 5mm don't though, in case you were wondering.
