I think that the Rears are fine, but the Fronts seem to be too far out. It would be like adding a 17mm spacer (3/4 inch) to your front stock wheel.

Sorry this is off the topic. Did any of you guys add spacers to the OEM wheels ? I read people put 5mm in front and 17mm at the rear, any advice ? will that change how the car handles ?
Much thanks.
