L-X the wheels look perfectly flush with the fenders. Why would you have gone with 25mm in the rear?

Now if I had only seen this thread before I bought my WORK Emotions...

Wesc, I like the AP1 wheels and black lug nuts, especially on a silver car. I think with that drop and "flush look" the car looks very clean.

my question was, what was your reason behind gettin extended lugs with the 15mm front spacers(non bolt on) as apposed to the 25mm bolt on ones for the rear???
In order to install extended studs in the rear.... The rear hubs need to be removed which can be a pain for those who have not done it before. It's much easier to just buy rear spacers with built in studs.

I run the project kics 15mm front and 20mm rear with only slight rubbbing on larger bumps that are hit at highway speeds. Other than that they look great, I didnt notice much if any change in the cars handling
