A search didn't reveal many posts on this subject; however, it is a hotly debated topic on other forums, with mixed opinions on whether or not spacers can cause premature bearing wear and/or failure. I'm planning on installing 15 mm H&R DRS spacers front and rear, but before proceeding to remove the OEM studs and installing the longer studs, I'd like to know people's experience in this regard. Since there are very few posts, I assume that it is not an issue ... but assuming is one thing, and hearing from those of you who have run with spacers is another. Thanks!
