Not your typical spacers setup ;)

I finally had the chance today to install my spacers... With most people running a setup of either 15/20, 15/25, 20/20 or even 30/30 - what makes this setup unique (as far as I know) is that I'm running an 18/22.5. Personally, I feel this is spot with my 20" M Sport wheels w/contis.

F: 18mm spacers w/extended Lugs
R: 22.5 DRA Spacers

Looks great!

On a kind of related note, are there any safety risks by putting on spacers?

Thank you! Not at all. I know this question gets tossed around quite a bit, so here's pre-emptive link from H&R: http://www.trakplus.com/faq

Looks good man. I opted for the 15/20 setup on mine. Installed them last week and they look great, perfect IMO. Next install will be my ACS springs/links...let's stance this b*tch! Haha.

What brand spacers did you use? I have a set of 15 & 20 H&R's but now I'm hearing the 15's won't work on the front on drives?
