Had the car tinted, wrapped and some spacers installed today. Happy with the result

Looks fantastic and the spacers look perfect. What size of spacers did you purchase? I have the same wheels and considering spacers. Did you warp the entire car?

Thank you. Yes I wrapped the entire car and front lights.
Spacers are BLOX 12mm front & 20mm rear. Seems to be a perfect mix. Was considering 15mm front and probably could have done that without issue.

Awesome setup! What has been your experience with the blox spacers thus far?

Nice, love the stance! I'm going with 15/20mm spacers once mine arrives next month.

I'm new to the forums. Your car looks awesome! Why do so many people have spacers put in? Is it just for aesthetics? Does it affect the drive?

it gives a more "aggressive" look with the wider stance that may increase some stability. going too wide may affect handling negatively and stress the wheel assembly, in addition to just looking silly IMO. note: depending on your dealership, any problems pertaining to the wheels, tires, handling, suspension, wheel assembly, alignment, etc that they blame on your spacer installation may not be covered under warranty. (I don't think this is common, though.)

when I switched to aftermarket wheels with 27 offset, it brought the fronts out 10mm, so I didn't install spacers there. because these wheels were 1.5" narrower than OEM, it brought the rear wheel sidewalls 4mm inside, so I installed 18mm spacers there to bring them out 14mm from OEM.

my net effect: +10mm front, +14mm rear
