Why wouldn't they "sit as firm as they did from factory"? They are secured in position from tension.

Bottom line, if you are buying new wheels, getting the correct offset (not using spacers) is best since you're paying all that money for nice rims anyways. But if you want to enhance the look of your OEM wheels, spacers are effective. Check out my signature picture with 15/20mm spacers.
