Caoboy- No offense, but you are misunderstanding the point of this thread. He asked for pictures of stock 17-inch wheels with 30mm spacers. Other members and I provided reference pictures for him. Also, spacers are cheap; relatively speaking. A set (4) of high-quality spacers generally cost approximately what a decent-quality 19-inch tire will cost.
Anyways...this thread proves it's point with upstate's and your posts.

I was running a 19x9.5 +20 and had no problems...235/35 on General UHP's which run kind of wide...no rubbing...stock height at the time though. IF I were lowered as much as I am now, I'd not be flush...the GS can handle a lot more than people think.

I have been poking around, wondering about spacers and figured this would be a good place to chime in. I have the stock 17s but on 50 series tires and want to get my rims more flush with the fenders than they are now. The pics with 35mm rear and 30mm front look about perfect IMO, but I have a few questions even then:
1) I am lowered on DF210s...how will these spacers affect that, if at all? Camber issues?
2) What is the best brand/spot to buy spacers from?
3) Will I run into any rubbing issues with stocks 17 on 50 series tires? I really don't want to get into rolling or anything.
Thank you!

1) The spacers will not increase or decrease the camber that is caused from the lowering itself.
2) I recommend Kics or H&R. They are built much better than the ones you can get on eBay and such.
3) On a 50 series tire, it probably won't rub. But I am not sure about that. You might have to just try it to know.

Vic are you on stock suspension. I eventually want to drop the car, but I will probably be purchasing some spacers first and was wondering what it would look like on a stock setup.
