Default Wheel spacers

Did a quick search, and I have a few questions...

I'm throwin on some 17" celebration wheels on my 01 (up from the stock 15") and I'm lookin to get some wheel spacers to go with my H&R/Bilstein race setup. Which size/model do you guys recommend I get? I checked out a few on ECS, but the H&R D series says its for aftermarket wheels so I'm not sure if those will work. I'm not lookin for a super poked out look at all, just something to make the stance a lil more aggressive.[/align]

These wheels are definitely the proper onesfor my car, they would have come stock on mine if it had the sport package. I suppose my question would be more should I get wheel spacers? Either way, could you guysdirect me towards the correct ones?

Default RE: Wheel spacers

1 - find out what kind of offset you are supposed to have = X (ex 32)
2- find out what the offset of the wheels you have =Y (ex 40)
3 - take Y-X=Z (ex 40-32=8)
4 - buy an 8mm spacer (if thats what you need)

all a spacer is, is a spacer. You could go to a machine shop and say you want them to make you a 5x112 spacer thats 8mm thick and they could do it.

second method

once you get the # buy your spacers here http://www.eurosportacc.com/spacers.htm - or anywhere you feel like it.
