Have any of you guys ran spacers on your em2?
Since I don't plan on buying rims anytime soon I was thinking of purhcasing 25mm h&r
spacers. Right now I'm on stock ex/si rims.
What are your thoughts on this idea? or ?
I know alot of 05+ rsx guys that use 25mm spacers on their stock rims. 90% of them
have nothing bad to say.

 

You'll need extended studs for anything larger than a 5mm sandwich style spacer.

dabopper asked this same question not too long ago.

 

yes i know that i think the 25mm come with extended studs/built in

Then, you'd need to worry about the OEM lug studs clearing the wheel hubs. Some wheels have solid hubs, which wouldn't clear the OEM studs.

Until they have to start buying wheel bearings....
Seriously, just buy a wheel with the offset you want. I dont understand the whole spacer thing.

 

Hm, what is the advantage of having spacers in general?

 

Brake caliper clearance, really.

 

interesting stuff. didn't really know what they were for too.
