Default Spring Spacers ?

I was wondering if it was safe to raise my car using spring spacers.

I'd consider that a band-aid fix for a more serious problem. Why is the car sitting so low that you feel you will need spacers to raise it up?

Ooh, band-aid fix doesn't sound good lol. This is sad but I am going to put some H&R springs on and wanted to put spring spacers on to trick my dad, he doesn't want me doing stuff to the car.

annnnd the point of that would be what? Are you going to take them out and put them in every time you leave and return to the house? That would be way more trouble than it's worth I think. Just wait until you can buy your own car and have it in your own name.

I remember back in the day with my old Camry, my parents didn't want me doing much to it. I just put Intrax springs on it w/o telling them. I don't think they ever noticed the difference, especially since I already had 16" wheels on it beforehand.
