Re: Wheel spacers
I got another one for ya... Hopefully next year I'll be ordering my DRWs... I'm plannin on going w/ a 15x7 +25... How close to the fender will that get me? I'm not lookin for pure cosmetic appeal w/ this... I do want the car to be trackable and functional as well as look good... So I don't wanna be ballin around a track and my tire snatch my fender...

Re: Wheel spacers
H&R isn't the only way to go on spacers,just stay away from thr swiss-cheese,cheaply cast looking units.I had a set of them in 5mm break on me after some track use,although I really think on the street they'd be fine as long as you properly torque your lugs.On my EG with 15x7/205-50s/38mm offset I'm running 10mm spacers with a little roll.They're still far from hellastoopidflush,but it's as far as I can go and still be totally functional.
Definitely go hubcentric,and you'll definitely need extended studs.
For stock steelies,you could probably go almost any size you want without much problem,assuming you're running a 185ish or smaller tire.I'd say 20mm would be a good shot.You could measure from the tire sidewall out to wherever you'll encounter interferance to get a pretty good idea.

Re: Wheel spacers
i have my OEM ep3 16's spaced out in the rear...its just a round spacer with holes for lugs to go thru, maybe 10mm thick. haven't had any problems, although when they were on the front (previous owner had em on jsut the front. idk why...) my front wheels would vibrate when i hit 60ish.
im wanting to see how funny your car will look with oem steelies flushedout.
