Hey was looking at putting some wheel spacers on my 13 STI when my suspension get in to get it that more aggressive look, untill I decide on what rims I wanna get. Anyone recommend a brand or paticular one that would fit nicely. I hear some mixed review on wheel spacers. But I saw a 2012 STI Hatchback on nimitz the other day and the guy said he was running spacers. 15mm but said he wanted 20mm all around. Forgot to ask what brand or type he was running.

 

stock wheels?
if so then i think you may need extended lugs to run slip on spacers because the stock wheels dont have the holes in the back to allow bolt on spacers to work. unless if you do get bolt on spacers theyd have to be reallu thick. 30mm+

 

Are you prepared to sacrifice performance and steering feel for looks?

 

depends what wheels you have, as far as i know most of them have space behind the rim to run a spacer... here is a thread u should read

Go down to progressive audio. Samson has some good stuff in stock.

 

Or just save money, don't buy spacers and buy wheels w/ more aggressive offsets?

 

+1

saving money=saving stock wheel bearing and suspension components. buy bigger wheels for that aggressive look while maintaining that handling and life on parts

IF you were to go 15mm+ spacers, make sure they are HUBcentric rather than LUGcentric. last thing u want is throwing those wheels out while only being supported by studs

 

I take that back, you can buy my pair of 30mm spacers.
