b2designs 15mm and 25mm spacers
Big thanks to B2designs on getting these out to me and John's crew at Autosport209 for allowing me to inspect my suspension myself while I was there. Turns out the purchase from Carmax was a good one after all... Lots of new suspension components.
After reading member reviews on the b2designs branded wheel spacers I decided to give them a shot. Stuck with 15mm up front and 25mm in the rear. Honestly this is one that everyone should consider if keeping stock wheels for awhile. Zero complaints from me.
----------
Nothing tightened down here in this pic just mounted. Wanted to make sure the stock studs weren't going to be too long... fronts where but doesn't matter anyway because the oem wheels have space for them in the wheel design.

You would know right away if the install isn't correct once you start driving so for those that fail because of improper install that's just their own stupidity. The install failures obviously show up on any brand.
My advice, read up and compare. If you aren't confident on installing yourself there is no shame in taking it to a shop to do it right. This is where others mess up because it's as basic as changing a tire... but the torque on the bolts is crucial. I don't own a torque wrench and wanted to get an alignment so I took mine in. There are more success stories with these than failed ones just gotta spend $40 more and follow instructions ^_^

Looks like it's "spacer" season, lol.
OP, I'm sure you're satisfied with the end look. Your car's color is amazing.
I just did mine about 2 weeks ago. 12mm up front, and 25mm for the rear. Couldn't be more happy.
yoitskenn,
Do it correctly, and you won't regret it.
