Re: WTB: 20mm H&R Spacers. Anyone?
Be careful when buying spacers. At 20 mm, you are going to need a LONG set of bolts. If your wheel happens to need tuner bolts... good luck finding them. I just installed 25mm hub centric spacers/adapters so I could use standard bolts, but when I went to install the wheels, the bolt head stuck out another 3 mm and wouldnt let the wheel seat against the spacer. After another $100, I had the bolts machined, and the wheels fit. Pain in the A$$.

Thanks for the advice.
I think I'm going to bail on this setup. I was trying to get a 16x7.5 setup for autocross going. The wheels were advertised as 35mm offset but are actually 38mm. I have PSS9 Coilovers so every mm counts. From the way it sounds, it would cost me way more than I had planned to get it working so I'm going to send the wheels back and find some better ones. Eventually, I plan on getting 245/45 slicks at all corners. It'll be a sticky setup. Cheers. ;-)
