Thanks. Probably I'm going to. The only ? is the snow.
I don't want to do the snow showeling in my neighbourhood... ...with my car !
your tire might rub if you drop it since you have spacers though.

I don't think so. The tires are still quite inside the wheels wells.

The spacers are round metallic pieces placed between the wheel and wheel hub and they are meant for widening the track.
I have 12mm spacers on rear axle now so it's widening the track by 24mm. To get the wheel more "out" from the fender.
