Anyone have these spacers? (Ebay)

Just trying to get an opinion...

is metal, metal in your opinion? Or spring the extra cash for the name brands?

I've had brand name ones and am currently using these and I really don't see the difference. A spacer is a spacer as long as it fits right, and they fit flawlessly.

In all likelihood those are made in the same place as the expensive brand name stuff. As long as they seem solid and fit well you should be fine.

What kind of piece of mind? Knowing you have $40 less dollars to worry about spending somewhere else?

These spacers are great, solid and hubcentric. They fit great.

I am lowered on Eibach 350z pro kit and at 25mm with a 245 rear tire did not scrub. I do not have a camber kit yet though. I added a 5mm spacer to the rear and did scrub so I had to roll the fenders.

****ty cell phone pics. 25mm front, 30mm rear. I love the way it looks, but will probably remove the 5mm once I get the camber kit on.

Extra twenty? The ebay ones are $85 shipped...last I checked the name brand ones were more than $105 SHIPPED. Either way, why spend more for the EXACT same thing?

Can you post where you read them?

I've had 3 sets in my hands and they have all been flawless.
