Scruff Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Lower offset > spacers. It's better for your wheel bearings and (apparently, as we learned today) safer to just shell out for some wheels that get you the width you want. But I have to use these Speedlines Once I get my suspension I'll just put 225s on them (they're 16x7) and hope that they don't rub, but if they do I will have no choice but to get very minor spacers and new studs.

asianrage Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 I think I might use 10mm spacers on my car in a while when I get my suspension sorted. Going to go about 2 to 2 1/2 inches taller as well. The idea though will be to get extended ARP studs to use them though, and I wouldn't run them but I want to use 225s and am trying to avoid rubbing issues. What brand spacer did you use?

alex0856 Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Around 32k MSRP Let's assume it was optioned up. Plus interest. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scruff Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 What brand spacer did you use? Haven't used any yet, still have WRX suspension (lower) and 17x7s with 205s on them. Plan is 16x7, 225s, KYB AGXs with King Springs. If I end up needing spacers I will do some more research. I'll possibly just buy things from Primitive Racing, as I would imagine they sell things that can take some punishment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
