^good to know. did you torque the spacers at 90lbs?

and since i need wheels spacers you guys think i should just get 10mm front and rear? that would put my offset to +2 all around. i had my rear fenders slightly rolled, if i get 10mm spacers will i need to roll the rears flat?

Black out the tail lights if you are going to go with blue rims. The red and blue seem to clash.

I'm currently running the Ichiba V2 spacers on my G, 15mm front and 25mm rear. Just make sure you torque them down properly, I did mine to 90ft lbs, and you should be fine. I find the hubcentric spacers as a lot safer way to go with spacers.

But even with the 5mm spacers, since they do not come hubcentric, I think if you just double check your torque all the time then I think you should be fine. One of my friends has been running 5mm spacers for awhile and he checks the torque on his wheels like once a week, to make sure he's good to go.

As for your possible +2 offset, I'd suggest rolling your fender almost paper thin and running a stretch if you're gonna be slammed. I don't know what coils you have, but if they have damper settings as well, I'd make the ride a bit more stiff.

If you're gonna stretch, be weary of the Falken 452's, they tend to bubble.

Hey once you get the mag blues are you going to repaint/powdercoat your red calipers to match as well?

This! Maybe this is why it looked so weird to me and I didn't really know why. Black out those tails!

Brian, Keep the tails red. Dont black them out. It will be distracting to see blacked out tails on your car. I hate seeing a nice car with blacked out tails. The red calipers and red tails will match.
