These Ichiba V2 spacers are very light in weight and seem very sturdy. Here are the pics:
HAHA when I read this I thought of this driveway....

So this is the ideal setup?

Ichiba Hubcentric spacers:
- Front - 15mm
- Rear - 20mm

MAS you didnt have to touch your factory studs right? The wheels with the spacers cleared the factory studs no problem? According to the previous posts it looks like they did.. Just want to make sure before I look for this stuff..

btw: CJ0920 your car is SICK murdered out.. if I had black I would do the same thing? You gonna tint your signals on your mirrors? rims look great also!
You wont have to touch the studs with the factory wheels.

Thanks, I was actually going to tint them, but now I'm getting ready for NJ state inspection Headlight tints will be removed, and I have some new wheels.

^^^^Would this be the same for the 18x8 aspecs? I am looking at picking up a set of aspecs (non gunmetal) and would like them to sit out little more...around 5-15mm, but nothing too drastic. I have aspec kit and suspension and don't plan to go any lower. I currently have a set of 18" RJ inspyres and really like the more flush look compared to the oem wheels.

^^^I don't think u shouldnt go any thicker than 15mm up front....it seems factory fronts already stick further out than rears......20 or 25mm in rear should be fine with stockies.

Ahhh... The thread I was looking for before I started an another unnecessary one on the same topic. Looks like 20mm spacers should work on a car dropped with Tein S-Techs without any fender rolling involved. Question answered! Thanks myron for the heads up!

Not yet because I have had other stuff come up that were good deals and wanted to get those parts first before tackling this project. I may also be swapping out my stock 5 spokes for a set of type s wheels. Just want to see what that looks like without spacers first.. my car is going through a total revision right now.. from bling blang -> STOCK lol..

I'm not lowered yet but planning on getting spacer soon or probably spacer and lowering springs.

1.5" lower needs 25mm to flush and stock height needs 20mm to flush?

Nice! I like the look. Is that 25mm on all four corners? More importantly, do you have any rubbing issues, especially under hard cornering? I'm dropped just over an inch and half from stock height with base UA6 wheels, and I'm concerned about getting too aggressive.

yup 25mm on all 4 corners, you wont have any issues. Your drop isnt too aggressive and you're on a 8.5" wide rim so you'll be ok.

Hey guys, well here's my situation: as of right now I'm pretty much slammed on HT type 2 coilovers and my wheels are 18x8 +42. I will be ordering 15mm spacers for both front/rear to bring the offsets down to +27. Is it possible to pull it off being slammed with 15mm spacers on my wheels without rolling my fenders? Worst thing is that I would have to raise the car up a bit higher if I need to get the fenders rolled. Oh & I'm on 215/40/18 tires btw, just slightly stretched. Any answers & or inputs would be greatly appreciated, thanks .

i'm thinking about putting 25mm spacers on the back and 15 on the front?
