Project kicks wheel spacers?

Hey guys,

I know alot of you use the Ichiba V2 spacers on your cars from searching. Any ideas on project kicks spacers? has anyone tried them? I'm getting quoted 400 for front and rear 25mm....i was told they are good quality and a bit better than the ichiba's. I also heard that the ichiba's sometimes seize on the hub....

Should i order the ichiba's online or go with the project kicks?

advice appreciated...thanks

Project kics are a superior spacer without a doubt, better hardware better lugs better quality.

That's gonna be with hub rings, price is okay. Some vendors on here could probably do better.

thanks....any other opinions?
I'm debating doing 25mm all the way around or 20mm in front / 25mm in back?
my car is a 06 coupe with stock 19 inch rays and not lowered

I'd roll the rear fenders and do 25s and 30s.

I'd go with Ichibas, they are hubcentric. I have 10mm Project Kics spacers and have to buy their overpriced hub rings seperately. I'm probably just going to slap them on without, or trade somebody for Ichibas.

Project Kics > H&R > Ichibas

Ichibas are known for ****ty studs. That's the only reason I stay away from them.

Project Kics is undoubtedly higher quality, you do NOT need the hubcentric rigs they sell separately.
If you're interested I can get you a full set (all four) of project kics for 250 shipped. got 15, 20, 25mm

What exactly are the hubcentric rings for? they are selling them without the rings and I was told that they are not necessary since they will fit my vehicle perfectly?

I think i might go for the project kicks then (20mm front/25mm back), they are pricey but as long as they are good quality then its fine (i'm in canada - which means everything is more expensive unfortunately). I could order online in the states but I'll probably end up paying duty anyways.

thanks for your help

I ran kics spacers back then with my oem 19's with no hubcentric rings and I had 0 issues. Don't get them, not worth the extra 120+. They should run at 125 per pair, 135 with the bigger spacers I think.
