Are the these the hubcentric one which bolt-on directly and do not require swapping studs?
I was looking at H&R's 15mm/20mm but you have to install longer studs they provide and my installer (not dealership) wants nearly $300 for labor!
Ichiba also have these sizes and if this became a DIY....

hmm How are the roadmagnets on your AWD?? Im thinking about getting some too but a 2inch drop kind of scares me.
Hows the ride comfort?handling?and do you ever scrape because of the drop?

Car looks nice!! Those wheels look really good for being 18". I've been looking around for wheels that won't look too bad in that size and it looks like these are a good example. I'm wondering how they'll look on a black car. Anyone have pics of this?

sorry for all the posts...
scraped once, but on a curb when backing into a spot. they were made for AWDs and because of the AWDs ride height they are a good spring. if you have a lip, which i plan to get, i forsee some scraping. ride quality... a little stiffer but i prefer it that way

yeah they are. i have also found that most wheels make extra space for your original studs to pass completely through the spacer. so if your only looking to use 15mm spacers i think it would work. These spacers will save you time and $. I've had em' for about 1000 miles now...
I'm all about saving time and especially $$$
Any issues/complaints in the first 1000 miles?
