Wheel Spacers

Does anyone have any thoughts or opinions regarding spacers? I was thinking that they would make the rear of the car look a bit more aggressive by moving the wheels out 5-10 mm. Does anyone have any before and after. From what I hear, it is strickly a cosmetic enhancement.

Thoughts? Experiences? Where do you get them and what size?

5-10mm won't even be noticeable. Remember, 25mm equals about 1 inch. I think you need 17-20mm to make a difference. Also, I find the rears stick out enough as it is -- it's the fronts that need to come out a bit more (at least where you have 17inch wheels as I do).
