Thanks all. I ordered 8mm and 10mm hub and wheel centric spacers with longer bolts from ECS given my use of 275 width tires. Hopefully it will improve stance of my S8. - Will post pics after installation in the spring!

I have 10mm all around from ECS with 275s. Could go a little wider in the rears. And I lowered my S8 10mm as well.

Thanks. Are those 21" wheels or the 20"?

I was a little worried of clearance so went a little conservative as my summer setup is 21"x9" wheels and I will be using 275 35 21 tires

Yes, they are the 21" with the 275s.
