Why are they a fail? They increase the track width. They are attached by machine pressed bolts. If you go with a wheel that has higher offset to bring the tires out to the lip, you're just essentially adding an aluminum spacer to do it, just that it's attached to the wheel rather than the hub. And, they significantly improve the looks of the 370z. I showed up with Ichiba spacers in hand and Big Brand Tires charged me $120 to install both front and rears.
