Are you using the 20 mm spacers with your Sevas, or with the stock wheels? Also, what's the PS2 in your sig line? 13.4's an excellent time for the mods you have... do you remember what you 60 ft time with on that run?

Yea, the 20mm spacers are on the fronts. the rims are 40mm offset. so in order to get the front rim flush like the rear is, i had to get 20mm spacers. you have to stretch the tire and continue to run negative camber to avoid rolling the fenders tho.

PS2=Playstation2

13.5 was my time. 2.0 was my 60ft. only way i acheived that was i was one of the first guys to run on the track. so it was nice and tacky out there. timeslip

Hehe... I was trying to figure out what mod PS2 could be an acronym for. LOL

Looks great with the 20 mm spacers up front... nice an flush!

2.0 60 ft time is pretty decent for RWD on street tires, and an 8.8 1/8 mile is excellent for the mods you have... great job man!

Could anyone provide me the name of the ebay seller you purchased your spacers from?
The links are for auctions that have ended so I cant see the sellers name.
Thanks

Here are the one's I got. The pics they show on ebay have different colored studs than the ones I received, but this is the same vendor.

Looks like the price went up from $75 to $88, though.

15mm is definitely not going to be enough for a nice flush look with the stock X wheels. You'll need at least a 20 mm for the front... this will give you the same look up front as mine, since the factory X front wheels and factory sport front wheels have the exact same width and offset. For the rear you will need at least a 20 mm spacer and maybe even a 25mm spacer, since the factory X rear wheels are a full inch narrower than the factory sport rear wheels, but has only 5mm less offset (45 mm vs. 50 mm). Using 25 mm spacers in the rear would essentially push your rear wheels out to the same point that the 20 mm spacers did on my sport wheels (45mm +12.7mm-20mm = 32.7mm Vs. 50mm-20mm = 30mm). 20 mm spacers in the rear would be sightly less aggressive, but should still look good.
