The RS has a 5mm spacer in the rears as well
Khanh is right, those RS cars do have 5mm spacers. I think mine looks fine without those pesty spacers though. I really didn't like how they made my car feel around those corners.

Did they order you the Tires in Matte Black? Have you tried the spray on silicon instead? That's what my car guy uses. It works great!

- Your car looks tight and you know it!

I might have to photo shop some GT3-RS wheels on. Hmm lets me do it really quick.

Yeah, sure, had the grimy hands to prove it!

Not a big thing though, just seemed weird. Do you and lpm have the 5mm rear spacers alpine is talking about? If I need them I want to order those as well.

Nope...no spacers and as far as I know William (lpm 505) doesn't have it either. It's not really necessary.

I wanna be like Jason! Haha - no I was kidding about the GT3 wheels. I like my wheels but you never know!

Rockamoto - you don't need the spacers. They will look fine.

The orange one - yeah that looks awesome and I am sure it looks more insane IRL. I bet the interior is orange stitching with Carbon Fiber bits!!
