This saturday i saw wheel spacers at pep boys...i was wondering what they are for and why would you buy them...

-HyJynX-

Ok...wheel spacers are for when ur wheel has the wrong offset and is to "indented" in the car, so you use a wheel spacer to get the wheel to as flush as possible.
DO NOT BUY SOME FROM PEP BOYS, DONT EVER EVER EVER. I wouldnt trust pep boys that much with my suspension...

Wheel spacers are generally a no-no... but there are some high quality ones out there. If it's a simple flat dosk with holes drilled into it, I'd stay away from them. They're generally "one size fits all" and if you're running say a hub-centric wheel, you lose that feature in the design and possibly make your car dangerous to drive.

H&R I belive the best spacers...not sure if they sell em for the 240 though

Seen em, I know what you're talking about... quick tip for ya bro - this is going to sound obvious, but a lot of people don't put enough time into it:

Before you invest in seats, sit in them for A LONG TIME. A few of my friends would buy the inexpensive seats, but after a coule weeks or so they'd wonder why their butt hurts, or back, etc. until we came to the conclusion that it was the "performance seats" they bought for about $300 a pair. Remember, the seat is where you'll be all the freakin' time, so it's gotta be comfortable.

Bring a magazine with you (or just borrow one from the rack) at Pep Boys and sit in the seat. Start reading for about 20-30 minutes at least. If your attention is still on the seats after about 1/2 hour, look to other brands. If you feel like you're at home, only to realize that strange people are walking around in your "living room" with Pep Boys baskets, then I think those seats will be good for ya

I am going to be running 30mm spacers up front and 20mm in the rear. They are fine if you build up the rest of the parts around them.

god damn stan, 30 and 20? I wouldnt think thats save, but then again I got no first hands on experience. I will soon though...soon.
A lot of the Sh*t from pep boys and autozone is just that..sh*t. The pedals..eh all right. Rims, there are a lot better ones. I only go there for oil and battery. And manuals...
