False. Tiny bit of a rant but.....
I bought them because I wanted to widen on wheels that were on the car as I bought it. They also didn't come in any different offset even if I had to repurchase the same wheel. Spacers saved me possibly several thousand dollars. Several thousand that is a serious waste on a $25k car unless you're a kid living at home with his parents and got some cash burning a hole in your pocket. Nothing is more off putting than wheel snobbery in a wheel/tire subforum. Between this and the "replica wheels are garbage" thing going on, it is hard to read some posts in here and not shake your head. Once somebody grows up and understands the concept of depreciating assets, much of car culture really becomes laughable. So much more on a non-collectible throwaway vehicle like a twin.
