H&R Spacer... Lip shaved/broke off?!

So unfortunately H&R doesn't warranty their spacers once they have been installed. Incredibly lame, since when else would you really need a warranty on a set of spacers? Luckily Josh@Stillen

Luckily Josh@Stillen was able to give me a great price, and ensure that I'll get the new spacers on Wednesday. to Stillen!

I can only hope now that this doesn't happen again with the new spacers too.

Now I'll have an extra set of studs if anyone is interested.

WTF... that is by far the shittiest comment from a manufacturer!!

at least take the failed part, analyize it, find root cause, and then give the customer a new one if it was a defect or explanation why it failed so there is no repeat by the installer.

you were lucky none of the studs broke off while you were driving.
chances are the new one will fail again in a few months. not going to be buying HR spacers for me.
