Sweet looking wheels...specs???

I'm running eibach 8mm spacers on mine. 18" Privat Netz. The spacers fit perfectly. What spacers are you using and what exactly needs to be pounded. Sorry if you explained this in another thread.

Are you a parrot? Why do you keep repeating the subject lines of other people's posts? :-P

Default those are nice, I've always wondered if they'd fit with spacers... could please post up some

pics of your car with those rims... I think another guy on here was trying to fit those (the 19s though) and wasn't having any luck.

Default Get spacers without lips . . . . let me guess, you tried to use H&R spacers?

What size spacer are you running?
