Default Wheel Spacers ? Pics

Does anyone have pics of the 04 wheels with H&R wheel spacers 5mm, 15mm or 25mm?
As seen on http://www.kingmotorsports.com/category.as...gory=Suspension

Are there any negative consequences from using wheel spacers?
Do you need to use extended wheel studs?

I dont know what you mean pics, like pics of a spacer or pics with a spacer installed. All it is, is a piece of metal sandwiched between the wheel and the hub

Anything over 5mm should be used with extended studs. Alot of people are going to say that spacers not safe and are just a bandaid. I have used spacers alot on many of my cars. Mainly just cuz i want the wheel to either sit flusher. Because sometimes you dont want to buy another set of wheels with the offsets you want, and not that sometimes you can get wheels with some offsets.

When I rolled on stock wheels for a little bit on my g35 i used a 15mm spacer front and 25mm rear and it looked so much better. I have used HR spacers and many others with no problem.

But if you using more then a 5mm spacer its alot safer to run extended studs. Hope that helps.

25mm spacers with 04 wheels lowered will rub, hyperdimensions put my set on his car and they rubber to much so he took them off but 20mm would look aggresive and should clear
