162's on 10mm Spacer with chrome bolts...what do you think? PICS inside!

markE90 · 02-03-2006, 10:50 PM

Well, I decided to put a 10mm spacer on the rears. The only problem is silver/chrome longer bolts are only available. So I got the whole set of bolts, front and back to make it uniform. What do you all think of the chrome bolts? For me honestly, I'm not 100% satisfied. I really like the black OEM bolts.

Sorry for the blurry pics, just look how the 10mm spacer gives an agressive stance

Danny, yeah it really made a difference when you look at it from the rear angle.

I like the chrome bolts....I will have the same set up as you once my car comes in. Where did you purchase the spacers? I think your car looks excellent from the rear....nice stance.

:rocks:

Spacers are from Rogue Engineering, but I got it from Creative Autoworks. Yeah I really like the agressive stance from the rear.

Does this change performance at all?

BTW don't worry about the chrome bolts, you'll forget about them in a couple of days. They look fine!

I don't think anyone is going to notice the finish on your lug nuts. 90% of aftermarket wheels come with chrome lugs, they look good.
