i think the guys with OEM 19s run a 15mm up front and a 20mm in the back to make a FLUSH LOOK

I couldn't stress the use of the search button any more than on this thread..been discussed a million times. The spacer you wont even see once its on the car...its just going to push the wheels further towards the outside.

Do you think I would've installed them if they were unsafe?

I didn't say they were unsafe...I simply asked, HOW safe...hahahaha...as far as comparing to the car without them...

You want a percentage or something? They are as safe as they can be, anytime you add bolts etc. to the car, you increase the likelyhood of some type of failure as you now have twice as many studs/bolts to worry about. That doesn't mean they are going to fail though, so who knows how to quantify how safe they are

I don't know about anyone else's setups but my Eibach kit doesn't increase the amount of anything. Mine came with extended studs and built-in hubcentric rings so there's no adding anything to the mix.

From whom and how much were the Eibach spacers you purchased?
