Pics of 1" spacers on stock 17x9's???

[CscottsSS]

I've searched and found a few pics but kind of needing to see more. I'm planning on buying a pair of H&R hubcentrics for the rear. I'd love to see some pics especially on lowered cars and even better stock 17x9 anniversary wheels.

Thanks in advance

Subscribing as well, I'm looking into buying some spacers for the stock rims.
Thanks

why do you want the spacer? bigger rear tires or what?

My reasoning is pure aesthetic, stock looks silly with the wheels tucked in the well.

Agreed,i`d be interested also.Can`t afford new rims and tires now,but could swing some spacers.

Yep, I'm in the same boat, plus I love the 10th anniversary wheels. The only way I'd be interested in upgrading would be some TF or CCW's. TTT for some pics.

I added 1" hubcentric spacers along with chopping the factory springs on top of my 275/40/17 Kuhmo's on the factory rims. The difference in looks was amazing. I decided to do this as I don't have the money for 10.5" rims/tires right now. I hope my wheel bearings forgive me!

I will try and post some before/after pics tonight.

Thanks! Can't wait to see some pics.

Interested in seeing pictures as well. I have 10.5 rears now, but it sure did look retarded with the stock rims in the back, all sunk in! 1" spacer would probably do wonders!

Definitely get spacers for stock wheels. It'll make a significant difference.

This is not with stock wheel, but AFS 18x9s.

I hope this works. There is a before and after photo.

I just bought a used set of the 1" H&R spacers for my '03 Termi and it made a huge difference in the stance/look of the vehicle. I'll go take some pics and post them up here shortly......

im always afraid to run spacers.

im always afraid to run spacers.

What are the cons to doing something like this?

 

[20LethalVenom03]

just think of it as a prybar...a longer pry bar has more leverage, well with the wheel sticking out further it wears harder on the bearings/bushings,etc., also many people claim that they aren't as strong...but I've never seen one break...

Ok.....here are some pics with and without the spacer.

How long have you had the spacers? Just trying to see if you've had any problems with them. And did you get new lug nuts? btw thanks for the pics, looks great
