Lol, I wish but costs depends on the size, that's why I don't feel its justified spending so much on spacers that are like 5mm or 10mm, but then again the 25mm I was initially looking at cost 75.00 but since it sold out, I purchased 27mm (2mm more I had to pay an extra 10). The extra 2mm could barely be seen.

Ichiba really isn't that good. Many people have had problems with their rear camber arms.


Now onto the spacers, I had 15mm ichiba v2 spacers on the front and the rear of my car. The two in tw front keeped causing my lug nuts to be come loose. This was so scary, my lugs were lose while I was driving and I didn't even realize it at first. I kept wondering why my lugs were becoming loose. So finally I took off the spacers in the front and I haven't had an issue yet. I will probably be getting 10mm or 15mm again back on the front but I definitely won't be going to with ichibas. It still really bothers me till this date why they kept coming loose.

No, they will not blow up in your hands!

I got 2x20mm, 2x25mm at optionselect too.
Good alloy materials (aluminum), good machining, strong steel lugs (take 90lbs torque all day over and over if needed).

What else are you looking for on wheel spacers?

Nothing wrong with the quality here, come with aluminum "infiniti sized" hubcentric rings. Total $150 shipped for the package of 4. It is a deal and safe.

The only thing that I have noticed with the wheel spacers on is the turning ability of my front wheels, since they are pushed out more, it has allowed me to get out of the annoying parking spots when there are a lot of cars in one turn without having to reverse, turn,etc. On the drive back after the install, I didn't hear any vibrations, and upon checking the lug nuts, none were loose and were tightly snuggled into my wheel bore.

Overall, I was satisfied with the wheel spacers and will continue monitoring them in the upcoming days just to be on the safe side, but the 25mm is definitely the way to go, the wheels look so much better now. They aren't tucked in under the rear fender which in my opinion looked horrible.
