I haven't used them, but I have looked into it also. It usually boils down to if you use a good set like H&R, you'll be OK. The cheapo kind that just slide over the lugs can somehow cause the lugnuts to loosen up over time.

H&R

I've got a set of H&R 1" spacers on the rear and have had no problems!

Got a set from Brother's that slide over the lugs. Required the installation of 3" Moroso studs, but no problems. Road racing or Drag racing...

I've got H&R's from Maximum Motorsport....it is the way to go if you want spacers. Do not get the plate type...do some research and you will find plenty of horror stories concering lug nuts loosening up and wheels coming off.

The H&R's are TUV approved....this is a standard of quality in Germany for automobile accessories. It makes DOT approved look weak.......

So when using the 25mm (1") spacers, you dont have to shave the factory lugs down a little for the wheels to seat against the spacer correctly?
