Default Wheel Offset/Spacers

Planning on doing 25mm rear spacers & 20mm front. Does anyone have any experience w/spacers? do they have problems? its for the stock 17 rims, should I stray away from such a big gap? Also what company do you recommend?

Nothing wrong with running spacers. H&R and ichiba are the 2 brands I use and they work prefectly fine.

Yah those we're the 2 I was looking at. I think I'm going w/the ichiba. After doing some research I learned that the V2 ichiba not only spaced but had added threads to use instead. when spacing such a big amount the nuts cannot thread on as many turns as they're supposed to which can cause them to come loose (along with your tire!) I'll post pics once they're on!
