[Deadphishy]

25mm, i hope you get either extra long wheel studs, Or they are adaptor plates and not just spacers.

Tire/wheel store should be able to get them. or a car shop. Also Murray's has small spacers like 5mm.

So uh no one ever answered if the wheel spacers were bad for handling or suspension cause i'd like to know too. I was thinking of adding wheel spacers, anyone care to show some pictures of their ep with wheel spacers.

I wouldn't use any but Project Kics spacers-- they bolt down & have extenders, rather than having to run extended studs.

For handling, some will say it hurts-- I've not run any yet to have an opinion.

unless you need them for fitment issues, stay away from wheel spacers. just get wheels with a different offset.

Just as an FYI, you can't run 5mm spacers on the stock studs... you only end up with 4.5 to 5.5 turns of the lug nuts.

Of course this also depends on the wheels, but I doubt many wheels would work.

You safe with 3mm spacers though.

I'm not so sure about that as I ran 5mm spacers for a long time and still do depending on which wheels I'm using. I do feel it would be best to put in longer studs, but 5mm spacers work fine, at least on my 02. Your best bet is to get wheels in the correct offset though.
