^I think you need coilovers so you can set the ride height at the perfect place and not have to worry about how much of a drop you're going to end up with.

Coilovers are for women. Haha

Ichiba and Eibach are fine too. I will admit Ichiba makes mostly garbage, but a lot of people run their spacers.

I would buy either H&R's or Ichiba just for the simple fact that those brands have the hubcentric lip design. Where the project kic brand does not, I would have to spend more money to buy their hub insert. An as far as the eBay spacers go... It's a very appealing deal!

Hi,
Please share your photos of your lovely ladies (car) so that we people like me can have a general idea of what are coupes look like with different variations of wheel spacers.

Plz include wheel spacer size, wheel specs if running aftermarket wheels (i.e rim width, +/- of offset), and plz include the amount of suspension drop you are running. If your set-up include camber, caster, or toe adjustment plz list it.

There are horror stories of studs breaking tho. Its kind of a "use at your own risk" kinda deal.

But Essentially are not all wheel spacers a "use at own risk" type deals. Is H&R going to fix my car if something hones wrong or will they just say its my fault for not installing the spacer properly.

Check their feedback. When I was shipping for spacers I saw large amounts of negative feedback on the eBay spacers on the eBay site. I was able to pick up both sets of H&R spacers new for $85 shipped each set, just gotta hunt. I also can say you can feel the quality of the H&R spacers once they are in your hands.

Well, yeah, but if one is more prone to breaking, I'd say you'd narrow your chances of it happening if you didn't go with those.

I check the the eBay feedback... Damn near all of the ones bought from the seller I'm looking were bought by Honda guys. $85 for a pair of H&R spacer would be a steal.
