    I'm looking at getting a set of wheel spacers to get my wheels to poke a little more. These are the right specs as far as I can tell (bolt pattern and center bore is right), but are these a good brand? I don't wanna cheap out, lol.

    anything you find is going to be relatively the same unless you make sure you go with a GOOD reputable brand.

    I was thinking about wheel spacers long ago, a spacer is fine (1/4" or so) that still retains factory studs. I don't think I would go with something that utilizes its own studs stamped into a chunk of aluminum, but that's just my $.02

    What would a good, reputable brand be? And these studs aren't stamped, they run through the back
