IMO, do it right. Don't use spacers. Get yourself a set of wheels with the right offset.

You can do yourself a favor by doing a search on Ichiba spacers. See what fellow CL members had experienced with those spacers.

Otherwise, go stock style.

the spacer issue will always have two advocates. Many people run spacers with ZERO issues, I've seen SC's running 40mm. It's all luck of the draw, and ofcourse knowing how to PROPERLY install them.
