Interested in Wheel spacers?

I'm looking to get aftermarket wheels which I know eventually I will be getting soon..... anyway, I currently have the stock pro5 wheels with JDM wheels spacers on them. If I get aftermarket wheels, chances are I won't be needing the wheels spacers any more so figured I would sell them.

The spacers are awesome! If you are still running your stock wheels but want to have a nicer look and better feel for road hugging turns get these!! If you have stock wheels and have your car lowered you must know that the wheels look like they are pushed in and don't look really nice.

Basically imagine your wheels pushed all the way outwards to right about where the fender is. Makes alot of difference in looks and also gives the car a wider stance so handling gets better.

Trust me you have nothing to worry about as far as problems with these things. They are high quality made from Japan that cost me about $300.00, they have a special key to install them.

just wondering if people would be interested in these, don't know how much i'd sell them for....

Here is a pic of my car currently with the wheel spacers on.

Sure i'll let you know.

Here are some more pictures to see how they look remember these are the stock wheels...if you have them take a look at how far in they sit and then look at these pics:

The silver thing with the black box shaped pattern on it is the spacer.

yow, 300?? hmmm

yup I bought them for approx $300 from Japan and I don't mean ebay I mean I went to Japan and got them.... I don't know how much i'm going to sell them for though...don't even have new wheels yet..... probaly sell them for pretty cheap....
 
hey now, japan u say ;) let me know when u get your new rims dude - chris
 
i like that you used proper spacers, and not washers, but i personally think the spacer should be only half that size, i'm not a fan of looking behind the car and seeing part of the rim sticking out.
 
I have no idea why they would cost $300. :confused: My roommate has some H&R spacers on his Jetta & they were like $65. It might also help if you listed what size they are (should be in mm). I thought about this before due to my exposure to massive #s of VWs with spacers. Will switching from 17x7 to 17x7.5 rims have the same effect (if only to a lesser degree)?
 
hey hawaiian im currently looking at the H&R wheel spacers to put on my pro 5! I have the H&R springs installed, but i don't know how much space to give! thanks *edit* im keeping the stock wheels
 
Just so you all know the spacers are now for sale.

I decided to put them on ebay to be fair and so I could get the best price for them. If you are interested please click the link below to go to the ebay auction. Thanks!
