Is it really that bad to run wheel spacers/adapters?
 
I hear positive and negative things about running wheel spacers.

I have a 13' wrx and love how the stock wheels look but hate how its so thin!

I want to run 25mm adapters all around as i seen someone else do it on the forums with the exact 25mm adapters and looks beautiful!

Is this really a bad idea?!

I drive this beast as a daily. I do not race. Just love to drive. Go straight speed. Home to work. Just drive. Occasional pull on the freeway etc.

Help......

I want to use my stock wheels. I love the way it looks/style. Just hate how it sits so inside the fender.

well, running stock rims with 25 mm spacers it's like rolling on aftermarket rims so I don't see any problems. I used to have 18x9 +35 offset with 25 mm spacers around

Thats what i thought, a lot of people hate it because it " ruins handling etc ". But i dont track my car or anything. Just a daily driver. Thanks!

I've heard people even tracking with spacers, you should be more than fine as log as everything is torqued and aligned
