So now I got them installed. My winter wheels are 8x17 ET20 so I thought spacers would freshen up the look a bit.
The car is still non-sport, and I'm pondering through this winter (which still can be rough here) if I should lower it or not. But that is all another issue.

Sorry about the bad pics.

Snow must suck for all you guys back east/north.

No, nothing. They were very easy to install, the fitment was very tight.
I have to admit, I was afraid about vibration issues. But nothing so far.

Here are they:
