i have 10mm rears, and need some new tyres, am thinking about putting some spacers up front as well.

love to see the sweeping side shot of a car wearing them both ends...

I only have spacers on the rears as the 275's for me filled the fronts out nicely as is....

just installed my H&R 8mm x 150mm hub-centric
cleaned the surfaces w/wire brush
a bit of Cu anti-seize on the hub
torqued to 95 lb-ft

very nice snug fit...haven't driven it yet, oem wheels/oem tire size
looks 'phat' :D

ok, put 30 miles on it...smoooooth
had a bit of a wobble at 65 +/- with the non-hub centric spacers...perfect now
no rubbing so far, but have not had the car loaded up yet

8mm F & R looks perfect, think pitbull on steroids :D

will do, might be a day or two...

but I'm gazing at it now out my office window and it looks mean :D
as 'mean' as a yellow car can look, lol

it's not lowered and rides 26.6 in front and 26.5 in back
I wouldn't want it any lower
