OEM wheels with spacers.

[MekstingerGT]

So I had some spacers lying around from my evo. Good thing they were the same specs. Slap them on for s&g. Unfortunately they are 20mm. Not my cup of tea. 10-15mm would be perfect but this just gives you an idea. If the car was lower with 15mm I think it will work but I'm not planning on lower my car.

I agree 10-15mm would have been perfect . Still looks good nevertheless

Wow those are huge spacers.

Yeah it didnt look that good. Sorry for the crappy picture but from far away it looked...mexiflush. If anybody is thinking about doing space dont do it! just get bigger wheels.

Not to be a complete mood but where can I source spacers? I have a GT2 AWD lowered with eibachs and I thing the back tire is tucked into the wheel well a little too much. Just want to mow it out ever so slightly. Your insights, as always, are very much appreciated.

Garageline makes really good spacers. https://garageline.com/kia/194-garage-line-2012-2013-kia-optima-wheel-standard-spacer-combo.html any spacer that has a 5x114.3 bolt pattern will work.

Make sure to get hubcentric with 67.1. These were from my old evo. Ichiba spacers are also good...www.ichibausa.com

Had so much done she wasnt practical anymore. All mods, bigger turbo, e85 etc. Its a blast to drive but the fun died out quick. I guess the straw that broke the camel's back was the fact that she wasnt passing smog anymore and with e85 it takes about 3-4 cranks to start depending on how cold it was.

I needed a car that I can jump in and go but still have fun hence the stinger
