    If you don't draw blood, you're doing it wrong!
    A deep 21mm metric should work also.

    ^^^ Looks great Mitch! I like how the 1" puts the tires right at the edge of the fenders.

    These are with aluminum wheels right?

    If I have the stock steel wheels they would look the same correct?

    Ben, Thanks for the great review. I just got mine and installed them today. Well worth the 30 day wait. I never knew these existed until I found your thread. I thought I was stuck going with 1.25" spacers - not anymore.

    No problem Arty, I was in the same boat as you when I was looking into spacers. I am really happy with the spacers to this day, and I'm glad they are offering another Group-Buy for TW.
