the spacers really make the 18's look much much better

It really doesnt look bad at all with the 18" once they are flush. I was very close to going with 19" rims due to the extra protection and the terrible roads here but I liked the "look" the 20's had to offer on this car. If I did more driving then I do now I would have opted for the 19" rims and called it a day.

Can you post a better side view shot showing the stock 18s sitting more flush with the 20mm spacers? Thanks!

Oh, and are the studs long enough to support the 20mm spacers? Or did you need to install longer studs?
