I have an EJ sedan with 15x7 +40 on it. Im using Ichiba 15mm bolt on spacer all around and its pretty "flush". Feels more stable in corners, turning radius is worse, spring rates are slightly softer. Just measure the distance between your tire and the fender lip. You can roll or pull the fenders if you need to.

for spacers anything over 5mm will need extended lugs because after that the lug will not safely screw on enough turns. or some spaces come with studs attached, just depends what your looking to do, and there is no prob running them daily that i know of...

Stickied at the top of this forum is a topic:

7. Bump once and if you still don't get the info you're looking for just let it die, don't bump it again. If you bump the topic a second time, the topic will be locked and you will lose points. Think about this - this means that if you use your single bump on your topic after an hour, when it's still at or near the top of the forum topic list anyway, it will be wasted when it doesn't accomplish anything for you.
