Thanks for the additional info.

Curious to know what the weight difference is between the Ichiba/H&R/Eibach.

Any references out there to compare?

I have a set of 20/25mm H&R spacers, I can try to weigh them when I get home and see what they run.

Here's my contribution pics, I just got Z1 25f/20r mm spacers, dropped on swifts.

Thanks man, I never took the time to measure the amount of drop I got but per Swift's website it should be 1.2 and 1.0 inches. Gimme a second and I'll get a pic from the side so you can see better.

Forgive the stupid filters, I just did that so you could see the tire and the gap a little better. I'm not emo, I swear.

That looks super sweet, not too low but fills the gap nicely in my opinion.

Thanks for the great ref pics. plus helping out on the "18" incher thread with more info.

We need some love and others to chime in so we can give these 19/20 folks/thread a run !

Thanks man, I'm trying To decide between 18s and 19s right now. I want something super concave and right now that's only in 19s.

BTW I weighed my spacers, I have 20mm ones and all 4 of them weighed 5.6lbs not including the extended studs.

Thx again !

As soon as I get my greedy hands on the spacers I'll weigh mine and work on setting up some Database for easy ref for others.

Love to go concave but new rims (given the mine are (stock) are all of 1.5 month old and less than 900 miles) is a long way away.....

I installed 25/20 F/R bolt-on spacers from Z1 today, on 2009 with stock springs and Goodyear Eagle F1 tires (245/275 width)
The fronts are flush, but the tires poke a bit on the rears
I think 15mm rears would be better...maybe even 10mm.
I'll see if I can get a shot from the rear to show it better.

I have been looking for pics of the newer base wheels with spacers,haven't found any so I just went ahead and installed 20/20.To me it looks like a perfect fit,my suspension is 100% stock.
