i like it also. Looks much better with the spacers on. Are the spacers hub centric?

The rear spacers have hubcentric rings, the fronts do not, but i cant seem to find any available to fit these spacers. So i might have to make something There is a very minimal vibration right now at 60mph.. above or below that, its smooth.

+1 and were the spacers as one unit, or had to change for longer studs before installing?

They are one piece spacers, that bolt to the existing studs and have new studs attatched. I feel safer using this type of spacer.. And im really happy with the way they look.

Thanks for all the compliments guys
