wheel spacers

im considering using some spacers on my 99 16" rims; for appearance purposes to make them sit out more toward the fender lip

this is how it sits now with stock suspension


this is lordrandall's, notice the spacing in the rear.. i dont want anything that drastic, i think thats a 1" in the rear


soon i will be on eibach/tokicos and my question is, will it affect the balance of the suspension at all?....meaning that the center of weight (rim + tire) will now pushed outward with spacers

Did you buy longer studs separately or did they come with the H&R spacers? Also, how wide are they? 15mm?

Those are not H&R's, they are custom CNC'ed from Crow Automotive.

They are 20mm with built in studs, you can tell by the pictures.

Check my homepage for all the info.

If the specs I've seen are right, I would say go no more than a 5 or 10mm spacer, because those wheels are supposed to be +40mm and our stock 15's are at +35mm. You should be able to fit 225 tires on them after that too.
