Wheel spacers- hypothetically speaking
Would one be able to obtain the 'filled arch' look on a newage STi by using spacers, rather than going for rims with a wild offset?
Just a thought- I like the look, but I'd no more run spacers on track than low offset wheels- and quite fancy 'the look' without buying yet another set of wheels.

wasn't a graet fan of spacers myself but tryed some h&r hubcentric on my a4 and while i don't do trackdays i can't see why you couldn't with the right bolts etc,very impressed with them

Depends how wide - anything more than 5mm and you will have problems with the length of the Hub Bolts or rather you take the risk
You may also get wheel vibration as the spacers need to be perfectly weighted - some that I got were not so I had to throw them away
I dont like spacers at all - better off without them if you can - I dont feel safe with them - I have 3mm spacers buts that only because the Porshce Calipers are too big for my 18's
