Installed Ichiba spacers 10 mm F and 20 mm R, looks very very good, makes the wheels stand out more visually. Rubbing a bit on speed bumps in the F. Will post pics later today.

Cool. Where did you buy yours from?

Did you do anything with the front quarter panels? If not, you could bend the tabs upward then tuck the fender liner behind them.

I picked them up from a local store in Toronto, OptionJDM, they have a website too. Don't know if they have the best prices, but they are knowledgeable and cool to deal with.

My front fenders were rolled and the inner liner relocated, I think I am rubbing in the tabs themselves :)

Pics as promised ...

Here are the rears

13+-+7


13+-+6


Here are the fronts

13+-+8


13+-+9


Finally, here are some of the entire car

13+-+5


13+-+4


13+-+3



Overall, very happy with the results aesthetically. Still getting use to the occasional rub, but now I just take it slower with a full wheel turn, and that pretty much solves all the problems :)

I got a private message from a member, and I thought I would share the answer with you all.

Yes, the extended studs and lugs come with them. Hope this helps others.

I am lazy, I had a shop do it for me :Smoker:

From what I understand, they have to remove the old studs, and press in the new studs. You could hammer them in, but that is not advised.
