Spacer install

So on my quest to find new wheels, I decided to buy some spacers in the mean time since I found for a good deal. B2Designs 25mm squared. Thanks to @HachiRo, they were shipped and delivered the very next day!

Looking for silver or black RPF1's, Arc-8's, F14's, or any nice set of wheels and good tires. Will buy outright with cash or trade for stockers/spacers + cash!

Anyways, installing the front by myself proved to be a little tricky. I didn't have an extra hand handy. . . or should I say extra foot. . . footy? I know, lame lol.

So this was my solution. I used the 2nd half of my jack handle lol. No pictures of the car as I'm on stockers and also sure there are plenty of pictures on the interwebs.

Lol, when I was helping a buddy of mine install his, we just stuck a screw driver into one of the vent slots on the rotor and braced the handle against the caliper (with some rubber for padding). Many ways to skin a cat I guess
