I'm looking at Z1 Motorsports spacers (the kind that require the longer studs), any thoughts on these spacers?

Increasing track is going to make an unnoticeable change in handling, especially given the other components on the car.

Yea I would say for appearance. As red zed stated, it unnoticed due to the other commoners on the car. I don't know much about the Z1's spacers. But knowing them there probably good quality. Mostly I would ask questions about the studs. You want good quality studs. I have ARP studs with my spacers.

15 fr and 20 r is the best stock setup IMHO

my current setup is similar to that... ET33 front, ET15 but with 10.5" running 275. :)

Just finished putting mine on.

For non-lowered cars, 15mm front and 20mm rear will make the top of the tire even with the fender.

For my car, which will be lowered when my swifts get here, the 20mm front and 25mm rear are perfect. The camber coming in will make them perfectly flush.

Anyway, yeah.

Looking forward to getting my summer tires back on and seeing the fitment with 265 front/ 285 rear. The RE-11s are just gnarly looking. That tread pattern makes them look like they're doing 150mph while standing still.
