Those are no good due to built in second set of lugs and bolts. Get H&R 15mm spacers and 60MM bolts. The factory bolts are 45 MM so 15 + 45 = 60 mm.

Roll the rears and go 18 (get 63 mm bolts) or 21 MM (not sure how these work).
This is a minor but noticeable look and handling upgrade. Good luck!
Of course, there are many board sponsors that you should look into supporting. Same products.

Where's the best place to obtain such 15mm spacers for the best price? Looking to do all 4 wheels...
Does it affect handling?

You should get the same lip, I thought I would have problems too but it really doesnt touch anything, if you drive carefully I would definately recommend giving it a try.

hey Ari,
i was always under the impression that adapters (with the 2nd set of lugs and bolts) were always more solid and less like to fail than spacers (longer bolts.. etc)
am i wrong?

Those are no good due to built in second set of lugs and bolts. Get H&R 10mm spacers and 10MM bolts. The factory bolts are 45 MM so 15 + 45 = 60 mm.

I don't know, maybe its the difference in places we go, or im just used to having low cars.... I have not even touched the bottom of the lip on anything yet. I left the car a little higher then I would like it for winter, come summer time, im going to drop it a little more i think.
Seal- Thanks for the compliments.... helps out the stance so much. I have a set of spacers for the front too, I just havent got around to putting them on yet.
Steve - Its getting there, hopefully I throw some wheels on by summer time!

Can you post the picture of your car from from rear? I am thinking of buying a CF GT2 add on wing ...just wondering how it looks from the back end. Thanks.

Frier - I got the wing from Speed Tech then had it painted. I havent gotten the car out to take more pics yet, the weathers been a little rough here in NY
Cossey - I had the same debate between the JICs and the PSS10's..... The JIC's are awesome, I am so happy I made the choice of them over the PSS10's
mtesh - thank you, your tires are still holding up
