I told you that spacers would work out nicely for you. Do you notice better or worse traction. I seem to think my tires spin easier than before cause they are pushed out further and the weight of the car is not directly on top of the wheels anymore. What do you seem to think?
i can't answer you that .. at least not yet.. it's snowin like crazy in new york.. and i have 3 season tires so they spin out enough already i can't wait for dry weather so i can wash off that salt off my car and take nice pictures of those wheel spacers

As for the 15mm spacers, I never tried installing them. I have them but seemed to have lost them. Not sure where I put them. They did come with its own studs like the 25mm ones. I like the 25 mm look so I do not see myself putting the 15mm on except maybe on another car.
i want to put 15mm at the front for reason that my rear wheels will stick out more then front ones this way the car will be more stable it's like puting wider tires at the back..

Looking good alexus. I have no spacers upfront. I do not plan on putting anything upfront.

10 bucks is that it....very nice.

The 25 mm spacers look great in the back! Where can I get some of the 25 mm spacers? Any safety issues or other concerns when using spacers?

Thanks,

Default wheel spacers

I got my H&R spacers from www.livermoreperformance.com. Best price, good service, quick (10 day) delivery. Everything as advertised. You can see the prices for H&R spacers on their site. Prices are for a PAIR of spacers, e.g., $119.99 for two 15mm spacers including new studs; $149.99 for two 25mm with studs. Listed for Toyota Supra.
