Spacers on all 4 wheels
Does anyone here use wheel spacers on their cars? Any problems? I got new wheels and was suggested to use 5mm spacers for my +55 offsets in the rear. It looks perfect with spacers in rear and in front also. Planning on using spacers front and rear. Is that crazy?

Not crazy at all. Before I got new wheels, I used spacers on all four corners with stock wheels. I used 20mm in the rear and 15mm in front, not sure but I know there is a limit in what you can use, smaller, not larger. I think 5mm is too small of a spacer to use in the front due to the hub lip, but it should be ok in rear. Please don't hold me to that, maybe do a search on here to see any topics about spacers.. Good luck.

I had spacers on front and rear in 10mm when I used the wheels in my sig. Now just using spacers in the front.
You want to use spacers for fitment purposes. To give the wheels a flush look or whatever fitment you are going for.
There are usually no issues with spacers as long as you have the correct spacers/lugs for them.
