why are spacers = bad? It's just for a more aggressive offset...plus my car is no race car..

do it if u want but the car is not engineered for them. In all reality anything aftermarket is bad but in this case u just want to look cool.  Spacers put more stress on wheel bearing and other parts.

Ya i found that out.  But then again, makes no difference with aftermarket wheels with a more aggressive offset

yep spacers suc.....I tried some H&R 7mm on the coupe, but the car drove like the wheels were totally un-balanced.
They are sitting on top of my tool box with a destiny of the trash can!
