Kics Spacer Installed!! (Pics)

I installed Kics Spacer today.. 15mmF/20mmR..

Before:



After:



While I was installing it.. I found this little bolt on the rotor on the front.. And I just took them off cause I didn't know what to do.. Is that ok??



Anyway.. It looks great.. And now I think I need to drop my car really bad..

Looks good to me, I woulda gone 25/30mm and rolled the rear. That bolt is also fine to remove, it just prevents the rear wheels from being put on the front

The addition of the spacers looks great. It really puts the wheels in a better line with the fenders. The bolt is merely a safety precaution so that the rear and front wheels are installed in their proper positions.

Yea, I was wondering the same... Obviously it'll widen the wheelbase but are there any downsides to adding a spacer?

about the only downsides to a properly installed spacer that is hubcentric is added wear on the wheel bearings, but no more than a low offset wheel would add so not really a big issue

personally, i would only run spacers on stock wheels. if youre getting aftermarket wheels, just get the right offset to begin with. some aftermarket wheels are only available in conservative offsets...so spacers would need to be applied then, too.

What are the offsets, tire sizes, drop, camber settings, and are you willing to roll your fenders?
